Abstract: A 32 - year - old male with MG was scheduled for thymectomy. General anesthesia was induced and maintained with mainly propofol, fentanyl and midazolam.

Patient was extubated after 6 hrs of ventilation post - surgery. Postoperative analgesia was performed by a continuous thoracic epidural infusion of bupivacaine and tramadol.
