- A 55-year-old woman with a history of breast cancer was found to have small-cell lung cancer and exhibited unusual neurological symptoms associated with both anti-Yo and anti-Hu antibodies, marking a rare case of concurrent paraneoplastic conditions.* -
- This case highlights the need for increased awareness regarding the occurrence of multiple tumors and corresponding paraneoplastic antibodies in patients, as it may complicate diagnosis and treatment.*
Objective: The purpose of the study was to investigate the clinical effect of high-dose glucocorticoids (GCS) combined with immunosuppressants on the treatment of myasthenia gravis (MG) with video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS).
Methods: A total of 106 MG patients admitted to the neurology department of our hospital from February 2016 to February 2020 were selected as the study subjects and divided into experimental group ( = 53) and control group ( = 53). The patients in the control group underwent VATS, while the patients in the experimental group were treated with high-dose GCS combined with immunosuppressants on the basis of VATS treatment.
