Plus Medical Journal, Vol. 16, No. 1 (1980) REPORT NEW ORLEANS: Two new therapies have recently been added to the medical arsenal to treat severe myasthenia gravis. Initial studies of splenic irradiation showed that three of the five patients with chronic disabling myasthenia gravis had a clear and temporary relief.

These patients are treated with anticholinesterase and prednisone Treatment is invalid. Department of Neuromuscular Diseases, Belor Institute for Medicine, Houston
