- •
Familial autoimmune MG (FAMG) is more frequent than traditionally believed.
- •
The FAMG phenotype is indistinguishable from the sporadic autoimmune forms of MG.
- •
LOMG and VLOMG were the most prevalent forms in FAMG found in our cohort.

Thymoma was also associated with FAMG, but less frequently than sporadic forms.
- •
FAMG treatment and management is the same as for sporadic MG.
