Abstract

A 25-year-old man with myasthenia gravis and a non-Hodgkin lymphoma stage III B involving the thymus, is reported. The association myasthenia gravis and non-Hodgkin lymphoma has not been described previously. Treatment with chlormetin, vincristine, procarbazine, prednisone (MOPP) resulted in complete remission of both the myasthenic symptoms and the malignant lymphoma.
