Myasthenia gravis is a rare, autoimmune chronic disease whose prevalence has increased since the 1980s due to improved diagnosis and increased longevity of the population. The objective of this work is to update the most important aspects of the entity, a knowledge that all health personnel and students must have. For this, a total of 32 bibliographic references resulting from searches in virtual libraries were consulted: Scopus, Google Academic and Medline. It was concluded that, from the improvement in the knowledge of the pathophysiology of the disease, the diagnosis and the treatment, it has been possible to reduce mortality, improve the quality of life of patients and their functionality.
