Popis: |
Muscle-specific kinase (MuSK) myasthenia gravis (MG) is relatively rare and has a higher incidence of myasthenic crisis compared with other subtypes. However, there is still a lack of effective treatment for refractory MuSK MG. We report the case of a 70-year-old female MuSK MG patient with recurrent fluctuations who stabilized on telitacicept in combination with anti-CD20 B-cell depletion therapy. This combination regimen deserves further investigation. Furthermore, we summarized the treatment protocols of 14 previously reported cases of MuSK MG. |
