To the casuistry of myasthenia (myasthenia gravis)

Abstract

Before describing the patient observed by me with myasthenic paralysis or myasthenia gravis, I allow myself to report some data on this rather rare disease, noticed 15-20 years ago. —Myasth. gravis is clinically expressed in rapid and severe fatigue and weakness of voluntary muscles, reaching paresis and temporary paralysis.

Despite a significant number of observations (more than 200) and despite more than 50 autopsies, the essence of the disease has not yet been clarified, and the question has not been resolved whether to classify myasthenia gravis as an independent disease, or to look at it only as a symptom complex.
