Abstract

A 60-year-old male patient with a previously unremarkable medical history presented with unilateral eyelid ptosis and binocular diplopia in the past year. Clinical and laboratory workup confirmed the diagnosis of ocular myasthenia gravis. In addition, further workup with orbital MRI performed due to exophthalmos and unilateral ophthalmoplegia demonstrated findings compatible with thyroid eye disease, which were further verified by antibody testing. The unusual concurrent appearance of ocular myasthenia gravis and thyroid eye disease is presented while illustrating the hallmark clinical, laboratory, and imaging findings relevant to both diseases.

眼肌型重症肌无力和甲状腺眼病：双重麻烦。

一名 60 岁的男性患者在过去一年里出现了单侧眼睑下垂和双眼复视的症状，此前病史并无异常。临床和实验室检查确诊为眼肌型重症肌无力。此外，由于眼球外翻和单侧眼肌麻痹，患者还接受了眼眶核磁共振成像检查，结果显示与甲状腺眼病相符，并通过抗体检测进一步证实了这一点。本文介绍了眼肌型重症肌无力症和甲状腺眼病的不寻常并发症，同时说明了与这两种疾病相关的标志性临床、实验室和影像学检查结果。
