Abstract:
:In a group of 60 patients of which 30 were affected by myasthenia, we used the regional curare test. The results were evaluated from a critical point of view and were then compared with the results obtained by the repetitive stimulation of the circumflex nerve, deriving from deltoid muscle. We considered too the specificity of the regional curare test for the evaluation of ocular myasthenia.
