Neurological complication following Sinopharm vaccination is extremely rare and Guillain-Barre syndrome (GBS) among the least common complication. Here we report a case of 62-year-old male with GBS secondary to vaccination. A diagnosed patient schizophrenia presented three-day history lower limb weakness preceding sensation numbness. Nerve conduction study was suggestive GBS, lumbar puncture sh...

Guillain-Barre syndrome (GBS) is an eponym for a heterogeneous group of immune-mediated peripheral neuropathies. We describe a case of GBS in a patient who recieved intravenous streptokinase therapy for acute anterior myocardial infarction. Clinical symptoms are thought to result from streptokinase-antibody complex mediated damage to the local blood-nerve barrier. Patient was treated with 5-day...

The pharyngeal cervical brachial (PCB) variant of Guillain-Barre-syndrome (GBS) is defined by rapidly progressive oropharyngeal and cervicobrachial weakness associated with areflexia in upper limbs. On nerve conduction study PCB represents a localized subtype GBS characterized axonal rather than demyelinating neuropathy. often misdiagnosed as brainstem stroke, myasthenia gravis or botulism. Her...

BACKGROUND Anti-ganglioside antibody assays are widely used for diagnosis of autoimmune peripheral neuropathies. OBJECTIVE This study aimed to determine serum levels of anti-ganglioside antibodies in children with Guillain-Barre syndrome by immunoblotting technique and compare the results with those obtained by ELISA method. METHOD In this investigation, 50 children with Guillain-Barre synd...

Central or peripheral demyelinating disorders including neuromyelitis optica, isolated optic neuritis or myelitis, and Guillain-Barre syndrome (GBS) in patients with tuberculosis have been well documented in the literature. , 2 It has been suggested that they are most likely due to an immune reaction to tuberculosis rather than due to direct invasion of tuberculosis or the adverse effect of ant...

Background Guillain-Barre syndrome (GBS) is an acute, autoimmune polyradiculoneuropathy affecting the peripheral nervous system, usually triggered by an acute infectious process. It is included in the wider group of peripheral neuropathies. There are several types of GBS, but unless otherwise stated, GBS refers to the most common form, acute inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (AIDP). Cli...

Guillain-Barre Syndrome (GBS) is the most common disease resulting in acute diffuse flaccid paralysis. It is an autoimmune disease that can occur at any age. The clinical course is characterized by weakness in the arms and legs, areflexia and the progression of muscle weakness from the lower limbs to the upper limbs. The most common causes of GBS include infections, vaccinations, surgery and so...

OBJECTIVE Guillain-Barre Syndrome (GBS) is an acute polyradiculoneuropathy characterized by progressive motor weakness of limbs and areflexia. In this study, our aim was to evaluate the clinical pattern and prognosis of children with Guillain-Barre syndrome. MATERIALS & METHODS This cross-sectional study was conducted in the Pediatric Neurology Unit of Amirkola Children's Hospital, Babol, Ira...

Background: Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) is an acute onset immune-mediated disease affecting the peripheral nerve also its root Plasma exchange(PE) and intravenous immuno globulin(IVIG) have given evidence for faster recovery in GBS(4). IVIG treatment comparatively costly but hospital stay duration reduced.Other options include corticosteroids not shown benefit. Mortality of GBS around 3%. Aro...

Myalgia and headache are relatively common in COVID-19 disease, but the serious neurological disease is rare. In this case, we describe symptoms clinic of AMSAN, a rare variant Guillain-Barre syndrome (GBS) due to COVID 19. We presented case GBS, 46-year-old male patient with poor overall condition that did not recover after loss strength all four extremities, CSF EMG findings. added another GB...
