The Lambert-Eaton myasthenic syndrome (LEMS) is an autoimmune disorder of neuromuscular transmission. Electrodiagnosis is confirmed by an increase in compound muscle action potential amplitude during high-frequency repetitive nerve stimulation or following brief exercise. We describe the results of stimulated single-fiber electromyography in 4 patients with disorders of neuromuscular transmission: LEMS (2), LEMS/myasthenia gravis (MG) overlap (1), and MG (1). Stimulated SFEMG was performed in the extensor digitorum communis muscle with axonal intramuscular suprathreshold stimulation at low and high rates. In all 4 patients, a rate dependence of jitter was found. In LEMS and LEMS/MG, jitter and blocking improved with high stimulation rates, as compared with the opposite effect in MG. We conclude that stimulated SFEMG is a valuable technique in the diagnosis of LEMS. 相似文献

Guanidine hydrochloride is known to be highly effective in the symptomatic treatment of the Lambert-Eaton myasthenic syndrome (LEMS). However, because of its potentially dangerous side reactions of hematologic abnormalities and renal insufficiency, 3,4-diaminopyridine, which is not readily available in the United States, is recommended as the preferred drug for LEMS. We used low-dose guanidine and pyridostigmine combination therapy in 9 patients with LEMS and analyzed its long-term safety and effectiveness. In all patients, a liberal amount of pyridostigmine was used, while daily guanidine dose was kept below 1000 mg a day, and guanidine was given between pyridostigmine dosings. This combination therapy was used for 3–102 months (mean: 34.1 months) and improved clinical status in all patients. Although guanidine had to be discontinued due to severe gastrointestinal symptoms in 3 cases, no serious side reactions such as bone marrow suppressions or signs of renal insufficiency developed in any case. Thus, we conclude that low-dose guanidine therapy is relatively safe and effective for long-term symptomatic treatment of LEMS when it is combined with pyridostigmine. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

A patient with LEMS unrelated to cancer was studied by stimulated single-fiber electromyography (SFEMG) before and 3 months after the onset of therapy with 3,4-diaminopyridine. All end-plates showed a progressive reduction in blockings and jitter with the increase in stimulation rate. Treatment significantly corrected this feature, but the overall pattern of frequency-improved jitter remained. Such widespread finding is rare but diagnostic for Lambert-Eaton myasthenic syndrome. Stimulated SFEMG can be used to monitor therapy in such patients. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Muscle Nerve, 20, 735–739, 1997. 相似文献

Among 13 patients with the Lambert-Eaton myathenic syndrome (LEMS), three different patterns on the repetitive nerve stimulation test were observed at the time of initial testing. Type 1 pattern, seen in one patient, had low normal CMAP amplitude, decremental response at the low rate of stimulation (LRS), and relatively normal response at the high rate of stimulation (HRS). Type 2, seen in nine patients, had the classical triad: low CMAP amplitude, decremental response at LRS, and incremental response at HRS. Type 3, seen in three patients, showed low CMAP amplitude, decremental response at LRS, and initial decremental response at HRS. We believe that these three patterns represent different degrees of blocking in LEMS, from the mildest in type 1 to the most severe in type 3. Since types 1 and 3 can be misinterpreted as myasthenia gravis patterns, they must be recognized in LEMS and an incremental response documented by prolonged stimulation at HRS. 相似文献

Two cases of Lambert-Eaton myasthenic syndrome (LEMS) who presented with primary respiratory failure are reported. In each case, although not initially suspected clinically, the electrophysiological findings, which included reduced compound muscle action potential amplitudes, decrement to 3-Hz stimulation, and potentiation after 40-Hz stimulation, led to the diagnosis in the critical care unit. Electrophysiological studies of the respiratory system, including repetitive nerve stimulation of the phrenic nerve, were extremely valuable in management. As shown by these cases, the severe respiratory failure in LEMS is reversible with treatment. Thus, LEMS should be considered in cases of unexplained respiratory failure, other clinical features of the disorder sought, and the electrophysiological hallmarks looked for, including studies of the respiratory system. © 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 相似文献

Abstract.
In view of the clustering of autoimmune diseases (AIDs), we studied the frequency and nature of additional AIDs in patients with the Lambert-Eaton myasthenic syndrome (LEMS) and their family members, in both small cell lung carcinoma (SCLC) related and non-tumour (NT) related cases. Additional AIDs in patients with LEMS were assessed by interviewing the patient and studying the medical record. Family histories up to second-degree family members were established by interviewing patients, controls and family members. Forty-four patients with LEMS were assessed, of whom eighteen (41%) had SCLC. In the NT group seven patients (27%) had an additional AID, in the SCLC group two (11 %) (p=0.20). Thyroid disorder (five patients) and insulin dependent diabetes mellitus (two patients) were the most common AIDs. AIDs were significantly more frequent in families of patients with NT-LEMS (64%) than in control families (27%) (p=0.002), which was not found in SCLC-LEMS (36%, p=0.53). Affected family members were linked to the NT-LEMS patient through the maternal line in all cases. In conclusion, AIDs were more frequently found in LEMS patients without a tumour and their families, which could not be shown for SCLC-LEMS. This suggests that NT-LEMS shares immunogenetic factors with other AIDs. In families of NT-LEMS, a remarkable preponderance of maternal inheritance was seen, as has been reported previously in myasthenia gravis. 相似文献

Practical aspects of 3,4-diaminopyridine treatment of the Lambert-Eaton myasthenic syndrome 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
3,4-Diaminopyridine (3,4-DAP) given alone or combined with pyridostigmine is the recommended basic therapy in the Lambert-Eaton myasthenic syndrome (LEMS). We present and exemplify our routine test protocol for monitoring drug introduction and treatment regimen of cholinergic drugs in LEMS. The individual drug responses vary and no recommended standard doses exist. Routine electrophysiological repetitive nerve stimulation studies recording amplitude of initial compound muscle action potential (CMAP) in thenar muscles correlate excellently with clinical myasthenic muscle power tests in clinically affected muscle groups. Therefore repetitive clinical muscle power tests, that often are complicated by painful myalgia and activation potentiation, can be replaced by recordings of CMAP in the introduction and clinical follow up of cholinergic drug treatment in LEMS. Also, adverse effects and other treatment problems from the experience of continuous treatment of 19 LEMS patients with 3,4-DAP for up to 10 years are presented. 相似文献

ObjectiveLambert-Eaton myasthenic syndrome (LEMS) is a rare condition, which may mimic myopathy. A few reports have described that EMG in LEMS may show changes compatible with myopathy, and muscle biopsies have been described with type II as well as type I atrophy. The EMG results were, however, based on qualitative EMG examination and the histopathological methods were not always clear. The objective of this study was to investigate if the previous EMG findings could be confirmed with quantitative EMG (QEMG) and to describe muscle histology in LEMS.MethodsQEMG, nerve conduction studies and muscle biopsy were performed in four consecutive LEMS patients.ResultsQEMG showed significantly decreased mean MUP duration and muscle biopsy showed marked type II fiber atrophy.ConclusionEMG and biopsy abnormalities mimicking myopathy may often be found in patients with LEMS.SignificanceLEMS is a debilitating, but treatable disease, which often precedes detection of a malignancy and it is therefore of obvious importance to diagnose these patients with speed and certainty. Hence it is important that neurophysiologists and neurologists are aware that EMG and histological abnormalities mimicking myopathy may be found in LEMS patients so that these findings do not prolong or misdirect the diagnostic process in these patients. 相似文献

Myasthenia gravis and Lambert-Eaton myasthenic syndrome are causes of acquired extraocular muscle weakness and ptosis. Exacerbation of ptosis after sustained upgaze is a clinically useful sign in the diagnosis of myasthenia gravis. A 54-year-old woman with established Lambert-Eaton myasthenic syndrome exhibited transient improvement of her ptosis after sustained upgaze. We suggest that paradoxical lid elevation after sustained upgaze may be a clinically useful sign in distinguishing Lambert-Eaton myasthenic syndrome from myasthenia gravis. 相似文献
