Tim RW, Massey JM, Sanders DB: Lambert-Eaton myasthenic syndrome: electrodiagnostic findings and response to treatment. Neurology. 2000 Jun 13;54(11):2176-8.
The authors reviewed the incidence of cancer, repetitive nerve stimulation findings, and response to treatment in 73 patients with Lambert-Eaton myasthenic syndrome. Thirty-one patients (42%) had lung cancer, 29 small cell. Doubling of the compound motor action potential amplitude in three tested distal muscles was seen in only 41% of patients. Treatment with 3, 4-diaminopyridine produced moderate to marked self-reported functional improvement in 79% of the 53 treated patients. |
