Abstract
We herein report the case of a 65-year-old woman diagnosed with myasthenia gravis (MG) after complaining of double vision. The patient had anti-low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 4 (LRP4) antibody in her serum, although antibodies against the acetylcholine receptor and muscle-specific tyrosine kinase were not detected. Chest computed tomography showed an anterior mediastinal tumor with a high uptake on fluorodeoxyglucose-positron emission tomography. Endoscopic thymectomy successfully ameliorated her ocular symptoms and showed the lesion to be thymoma. The present case revealed that anti-LRP4 antibody-associated MG can be associated with thymoma, which has been regarded as a rare complication of this disease thus far.
