Abstract

The characteristic of the typical Guillain-Barré syndrome GBS is an ascending symmetrical and demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy. Acute motor and sensory axonal neuropathy AMSAN is a less common variant of GBS. Here, we describe an atypical AMSAN case developed after a beta-hemolytic streptococcal infection. Also, repeated electrophysiological test findings were discussed.

Özet

Tipik Guillain-Barré sendromunun GBS karakteristiği assendan, simetrik ve demiyelinizan poliradikülonöropati olmasıdır. Akut motor ve sensoryel aksonal nöropati AMSAN GBS’nin daha az görülen bir çeşididir. Burada, beta-hemolitik streptokok enfeksiyonu sonrası gelişen atipik bir AMSAN olgusunu tanımladık. Ayrıca tekrarlı elektrofizyolojik bulgularını tartıştık.
