Miastenia grave familiar: relato de caso em gêmeas idênticas

Abstract: RESUMO -Trata-se do sétimo relato da literatura mundial de casos de miastenia gravis em gêmeos homozigóticos em que ambos são acometidos. O homozigotismo foi provado com certeza por estudo de HLA e a forma adquirida da doença foi provada por determinação de níveis elevados de anticorpos anti-receptor de acetilcolina, havendo também níveis elevados de anticorpos antimúsculo estriado, sem outras evidências de timoma. Familial myasthenia gravis: case report in identical twins.SUMMARY -To the best of our knowledge… Show more
