Abstract Background: Androgen insensitivity syndrome (AIS) is a rare disease caused by mutations in the AR gene. This results in resistance to the actions of androgen as well as a female phenotype with 46 XY. Anatomically, individuals with AIS lack both a uterus and ovaries. Case presentation: In this case report, we detail a 32-year-old patient with complete AIS (CAIS). This female patient with 46 XY genotype came to our hospital seeking surgical removal of bilateral testis. The subsequent medical history, clinical examination, imaging, and endocrine outcomes from this patient were collected and are presented here. Conclusions: Individuals with CAIS need appropriate care from doctors and support from their family. The diagnosis, treatment, and management of CAIS also requires a multidisciplinary approach.

Myasthenia Gravis (MG) is a rare disease of neuromuscular junction which typically presents with fatigable weakness of cranial and limb muscles. But patient may present with vague symptoms which may mislead physicians to an incorrect diagnosis. We are reporting a 45 year old cobbler presented with the complaints of lack of energy, aching pain in shoulder, back, upper arm and difficulty in swallowing of both solid and liquid food without any diurnal variation for two and half years. He was ultimately diagnosed as a case of MG and thymectomy revealed thymoma. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/jom.v13i1.10087 JOM 2012; 13(1): 109-114
