Abstract:
A 18 year-old soldier, heroin-addict, presented with the association of myasthenia gravis and HIV infection with a specific subacute encephalopathy. To our knowledge, it is the second reported case. This association may result from an immune dysregulation due to nonspecific thymic modifications, which has been reported in AIDS.
