But what happens in myasthenia gravis though?

但是重症肌是如何发生的呢？

To better understand myasthenia gravis, let's review normal muscle contraction but at the cellular level.

为了更好的理解重症肌，我们从细胞水平来了解一下肌肉正时的状态。

The good news is is that treatment has been able to reduce mortality from myasthenia gravis.

好消息是现在的治疗方案可以低重症肌的死亡率。

Finally, a lot of people with myasthenia gravis undergo surgical removal of the thymus.

最终，许多重症肌者会进行胸腺切除术。

The man, Rufino Borrego, told Portuguese media that a neurologist has found after more than four decades that he suffered from a different disease myasthenia, which unlike the initial diagnosis of muscular dystrophy, is curable.

博雷戈(Rufino Borrego)告诉葡萄牙媒体，一位神经病学家40多年后才发现他的是另外一种名叫肌的疾病，而不是最初诊断的肌肉萎症，是可以治愈的。

In very rare cases, myasthenia gravis can present as a paraneoplastic syndrome, which means that an underlying cancer like bronchogenic carcinoma or thymic neoplasm (also known as thymoma) generates an immune response which results in generation of autoantibodies.

在极罕见的情况下，重症肌会表现出副肿瘤综合征，这意味着潜在的癌症如支气管肺癌、胸腺肿瘤导致免疫应答产生了自身抗体。
