Abstract

Guillain-Barre syndrome (GBS) is a common neurologic disease with paresthesia, albuminocytologic dissociation in cerebrospinal fluid analysis, accompanied by motor weakness, areflexia/hyporeflexia and mild sensory loss. Cranial nerve involvement is seen in 45-75% of patients with GBS. Of all cranial nerves, the 12thcranial nerve is the most rarely involved nerve and very few cases have been described in the literature. This case is presented because it is an atypical case with hypoglossal nerve involvement, as well as significant asymmetric impairment of the upper extremities.

Özet

Guillain-Barre sendromu (GBS), motor güçsüzlük, arefleksi/hiporefleksi, hafif duyusal kaybın eşlik ettiği parestezi, beyin-omurilik sıvısında albümino-sitolojik dissosiyasyon ile seyreden ve sık karşılaşılan bir nörolojik hastalıktır. GBS’de kraniyal sinir tutulumu olguların %45-75’inde görülür. Tüm kraniyal sinirler içinde en nadir tutulan sinir 12. kraniyal sinir olup, literatürde bugüne kadar çok az sayıda olgu tanımlanmıştır. Bu olgu hipoglossal sinir tutulumu yanı sıra üst ekstremitelerde belirgin asimetrik seyriyle atipik bir olgu olması nedeniyle sunulmuştur.
