Abstract
Guillain-Barré syndrome is a rapidly progressive, acute, inflammatory polyradiculoneuropathy. It typically presents as an acute as- cending symmetrical weakness with areflexia.The diagnosis of this syndrome is dependent heavily on the history and examination, although cerebrospinal fluid analysis and electrodiagnostic testing usually confirm the diagnosis. In some cases atypical presentation may cause a delay in diagnosis. In this paper, we presented a 66 year old women with GBS who showed neck stiffness as an atypical symptom.
