Unsuspected myasthenia gravis presenting as respiratory failure.

A Mier1, C Laroche, M Green.   

Abstract

A patient developed respiratory failure after surgical removal of a recurrent thymoma, which necessitated removal of part of the diaphragm. The respiratory failure was due to previously undiagnosed myasthenia gravis, which had selectively affected the respiratory muscles.
