Abstract
The paper describes clinical observations of two patients at 22—24 weeks’ gestation with bilateral macromastia concurrent with myasthenia in one of the cases. Owing to the adequate diagnosis, the pregnant women were admitted to a core hospital, successfully operated on and then transferred to an obstetric unit to prolong pregnancy. Both clinical cases ended with the birth of full-term live babies.
