Core Tip |
Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) is an autoimmune-mediated acute polyneurogenic neuropathy. The clinical presentation of GBS is characterized by an acute onset, symmetric limb weakness, sensory disturbances, extraocular muscle paralysis, ataxia, diminished tendon reflexes, hypotonia, abdominal distention, constipation, and urinary retention following autonomic nerve damage. In recent years, anti-sulfatide antibody positivity has been increasingly noted in GBS cases, with varying clinical symptoms; thus, these antibodies have become crucial for the diagnosis of GBS. Here, we report the case of a patient who presented with signs and symptoms of spinal cord involvement and was diagnosed with anti-sulfatide antibody-positive GBS combined with spinal cord involvement, which is relatively rare in clinical practice; the symptoms improved after receiving combined treatment with intravenous human immunoglobulin and methylprednisolone pulse therapy. |
