摘要: 目的:总结乙酰胆碱受体抗体(AChR-Ab)和肌联蛋白抗体(Titin-Ab)双阳性的重症肌无力(Myasthenia Gravis, MG)患者的临床特点、治疗效果及预后,以提高我们对此类患者诊治的正确认识。方法:回顾性收集2021年6月至2022年8月在济宁医学院附属医院神经内科确诊的AChR-Ab及Titin-Ab双阳性的重症肌无力患者的临床资料,总结分析其临床特点、抗体结果及治疗预后的情况。结果:共纳入患者23例,其中男10例,女13例;发病年龄平均(60.87 ± 2.86)岁。最常累及眼外肌、躯干肌、咽喉肌。其中5例(23.53%)提示胸腺病变。按照美国重症肌无力协会(MGFA)标准对患者疗效进行评估,治疗后临床症状达到药物缓解(PR) 4例、最小临床表现(MM) 11例,症状改善(I) 6例,症状不变(U) 1例,症状恶化(W) 1例,治疗有效率91.30%。结论:乙酰胆碱受体抗体(AChR-Ab)和肌联蛋白抗体(Titin-Ab)双阳性的重症肌无力大部分属于晚发型,眼外肌、躯干肌和咽喉肌受累最常见,胸腺病变发生率高,激素治疗、免疫治疗有效。
Abstract: Objective: To summarize the clinical characteristics, antibody results, therapeutic effect and prog-nosis of myasthenia gravis (MG) patients with double positive acetylcholine receptor antibody (AChR-Ab) and Titin antibody (Titin-Ab), so as to improve our correct understanding of the diagno-sis and treatment of this kind of patients. Methods: Clinical data of patients with myasthenia gravis who were diagnosed as double positive for AchR-Ab and Titin-Ab in the Department of Neurology, Affiliated Hospital of Jining Medical University from June 2021 to August 2022 were retrospectively collected, and their clinical characteristics, antibody results and treatment prognosis were summa-rized and analyzed. Results: A total of 23 patients with AchR-Ab and Titin-Ab double positive MG were enrolled, including 10 males and 13 females. The mean age of onset was 60.87 ± 2.86 years. The extraocular, trunk and throat muscles were most commonly involved. Five cases (23.53%) showed thymic lesions. According to the criteria of Myasthenia Gravis Society of America (MGFA), the clinical symptoms were relieved (PR) in 4 cases, minimal clinical manifestation (MM) in 11 cases, improved (I) in 6 cases, unchanged (U) in 1 case, worsened (W) in 1 case, and the effective rate was 91.30%. Conclusion: Myasthenia gravis with both AChR-Ab and Titin-Ab positive is mostly late-onset. Extraocular, trunk and throat muscles are the most common involved muscles. The ex-traocular, trunk and throat muscles were most commonly involved. Thymus lesions are common in myasthenia gravis. Hormone therapy and immunotherapy are effective.
