title: [Treatment of severe forms of myasthenia with prednisolone and triamcinolone].
abstract: On the basis of a long-term observation of 1000 patients with myasthenia the authors stress the necessity of a manifold treatment of this disease with the use of anticholinesterase preparations, by correcting the mineral metabolism and by influencing the thymus gland. In specially severe cases an intensive hormone therapy is recommended with large doses of triamcinolon and prednisolon. In 39 cases of a severe myasthenia the used treatment was successful. The paper deals with theoretical prerequisites and methods of treatment by corticosteroid preparations, their combination with other drugs and an optimal appliance of hormone therapy with preparations of kalii and veroshpiron.
