Abstract
Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) is an acute inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy of the peripheral nervous system. Involvement of the dorsal root ganglia and the medulla spinalis in GBS is rare, especially in an axonal form. Herein, we report the case of a 53-year-old woman with classic GBS and involvement of the T8-L1 dorsal root segments. Dorsal root and spinal involvement should be kept in mind in all types of GBS when patients present with segmental or dermatomal sensory impairment.
