摘要：
Many diseases in the obese population have been found to improve after weight loss. A 56-year-old female with a long history of myasthenia gravis (MG) and morbid obesity is reported. Preoperatively, she presented with a BMI of 46.5 kg/m(2), and was on three medications and IV immunoglobulin every 5 weeks. After the surgical procedure, she improved and required less medication. Because MG and morbid obesity require careful perioperative management in order to avoid complications, a multidisciplinary approach is recommended.
