ABSTRACT
Inspiratory muscle function was assessed in a patient with the Lambert-Eaton myasthenic syndrome that developed in association with a bronchogenic carcinoma. Repetitive maximal inspiratory pressure measurements and the electromyographic response to phrenic nerve stimulation established involvement of the inspiratory muscles in general and the diaphragm specifically in this condition.
