Myasthenia gravis and ALS are critically important subjects for neurologists despite the relatively small numbers of individuals afflicted with these disorders. The aim of this issue which is published by the American Academy of Neurology is to provide guidelines to the clinician for evaluating a patient who presents with suspected myasthenia gravis (MG) or amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). It reviews the presenting symptoms and characteristic clinical signs of MG and ALS and provide distinguishing features of the two diseases when both are included in the initial differential diagnosis. Possible pitfalls in the diagnosis of both disorders is thoroughly highlighted.
