Clinically it may present with an array of movement disorders,dementia, cerebellar impairment and speech disorder. We report a myasthenia gravis patient with dysarthria which did notrespond to pyridostigmin. Brain MRI showed bilateral striopallidodentate calcinosis (BSPDC). To our knowledge, there is noreported case having anti-acetylcholine receptor antibody and massive intracranial calcifications. This case indicates thatBSPDC may develop in diverse neurological disorders.
