Thymoma muscle weakness is generally severe.
About 18%-50% of patients are associated with myasthenia gravis, which is characterized by generalized muscle weakness and fatigue due to dysfunction of nerve-muscle junction transmission, aggravated by activity, and moderately relieved by rest.
When myasthenia gravis occurs, the muscles of the whole body will be affected, leading to corresponding clinical symptoms.
If the eye muscles are involved, it will lead to difficulty in opening the eyes or diplopia, if the muscles of the limbs are involved, it will lead to weakness of the limbs, if the respiratory muscles are involved, it may lead to respiratory failure, which will be life-threatening, so thymoma myasthenia gravis is generally serious.
After the occurrence of thymoma myasthenia gravis, you need to visit the thoracic surgery department in time and follow the doctor’s instructions for surgical resection, medication and radiotherapy.
