The Tensilon test. A safe office procedure.

H J Van Dyk, L Florence.   

Abstract

Myasthenia gravis in now known to be an autoimmune disorder in which damage of acetylcholine receptors takes place at the post-synaptic membrane. This new knowledge has improved therapy and placed a premium on early diagnosis. To overcome ophthalmologic reluctance to perform Tensilon testing, side effects of Tensilon are reviewed and a survey of the frequency of these side effects is reported.
