The autoimmune pathogenesis of myasthenia gravis is relatively well understood. The current options for treatment of this disease are acute and long term immunotherapies, acetylcholinesterase inhibitors and thymectomy. Many factors influence the timing of initiation of immunomodulatory therapy in myasthenia gra...
