DISCUSSIONThe spectrum of thymoma-associated auto-immune paraneoplastic syndromes include myasthenia gravis (MG)(seen in 30–45% of patients), immune-mediated cytopenias, hypogammaglobulinemia, neurologic syndromes and less commonly polymyositis, hepatitis, and myocarditis. Although MG with auto-immune involvement of another organ system may be found in up to 15% of patients with thymoma, involvement of more than one organ system, as in this case, is rare.
