Myasthenia gravis shows NO demonstrable histologic changes in muscle tissue. The disease is caused by autoimmune destruction of acetylcholine receptors at the neuromuscular junction, not by structural muscle changes. The muscle fibers themselves remain morphologically normal. The weakness and fatigability are due to impaired neuromuscular transmission, not muscle fiber pathology.

The definitive treatment for a pneumothorax is the insertion of a chest tube, which allows the evacuation of air or gas from the pleural space and the re-expansion of the lung. This is crucial for alleviating the symptoms and preventing the condition from progressing to a tension pneumothorax, which can be life-threatening. Other treatments may include oxygen therapy and pain management.
