The treatment of patients with myasthenia gravis should be individualized according to the extent (ocular versus generalized) and severity (mild to severe) of disease, the presence or absence of concomitant disease (including but not limited to other autoimmune diseases and thymoma), and, to a lesser degree, the age of the patient.

Myasthenia Gravis

New England Journal of Medicine, 2016
Myasthenia gravis is an autoimmune disease, which leads to load-dependent weakness of voluntary skeletal muscles with recovery of function after resting. The disease is caused by autoantibodies directed against the postsynaptic nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (AChR) leading to a reduction of neuromuscular transmission.

Myasthenia gravis is an autoimmune neuromuscular disease caused by antibodies directed against the postsynaptic muscle membrane. The clinical hallmark of the disease is fluctuating and fatigable weakness that affects the ocular muscles (resulting in diplopia and ptosis), the bulbar muscles (causing dysphagia, dysarthria, and dyspnea), and extremity ...

Myasthenia gravis

Disease-a-Month, 1997
Adult-onset myasthenia gravis is an acquired autoimmune disorder of neuromuscular transmission in which acetylcholine receptor antibodies attack the postsynaptic membrane of the neuromuscular junction. Although the cause of this disease is unknown, the role of immune responses in its pathogenesis is well established.

Current Treatment Options in Neurology, 2010
Treatment of patients with acquired (autoimmune) myasthenia gravis should rely on evidence-based therapeutic choices, taking into account the individual's needs according to disease severity (mild to severe), extent (ocular or generalized), comorbidities (including other autoimmune diseases, infections, thymoma, and pregnancy), age, iatrogenic factors (

Myasthenia Gravis

Veterinary Clinics of North America: Small Animal Practice, 1979
Myasthenia gravis is characterized by muscle weakness, which is alleviated by rest and by anticholinesterase drugs. There are two forms of the disease in the dog, acquired and congenital. The acquired form occurs either in young adults, or in older animals that have developed mediastinal tumors. Clinically, there is weakness of the muscles of the limbs,
