A reticulum cell sarcoma was diagnosed in a myasthenic patient 14 years after the first manifestations of myasthenia gravis. The association of myasthenia and malignancy, especially lymphoreticular, is discussed in view of an increasing number of similar reports in the literature. It is suggested that autoimmune diseases, myasthenia gravis and malignant processes might have a common underlying abnormal immune state related to thymic pathology.
一名重症肌无力患者在首次出现重症肌无力症状14年后被诊断为网状细胞肉瘤。鉴于文献中越来越多类似的报道，本文讨论了重症肌无力与恶性肿瘤，尤其是淋巴网状系统恶性肿瘤的关联。有人提出，自身免疫性疾病、重症肌无力和恶性病变可能有一个与胸腺病理相关的共同潜在异常免疫状态。
