Concomitant Chronic Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyneuropathy and Myasthenia Gravis Following Cytomegalovirus Infection
J Neurol Sci 240:103-106, Mori, M.,et al, 2006
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
Several reports described association between CIDP or MG, and CMV infection, although the association is still a matter of controversy. This is the first report of patients with concomitant CIDP and MG following CMV infection. The association may be coincidental, but the possibility that CMV infection triggered development of both CIDP and MG simultaneously cannot be excluded.
