Abstract
Abstract: Guillain-Barre Syndrome (GBS) is an acute inflammatory polyradiculoneuropathy which can lead to rapid neuromuscular respiratory failure, with an estimated annual incidence of 1-2 per 100,000 person-years. Even though cranial nerve involvement is known to occur in GBS, radiological correlation on neuroimaging studies are less frequently reported in pediatric population. We hereby report the case of a 14-year-old boy with acute motor axonal neuropathy variant of GBS, who had extensive contrast enhancement of multiple cranial nerves on Magnetic Resonance Imaging brain, associated with clinicoradiological dissociation on presentation.
期刊介绍：
Journal of Clinical Neuromuscular Disease provides original articles of interest to physicians who treat patients with neuromuscular diseases, including disorders of the motor neuron, peripheral nerves, neuromuscular junction, muscle, and autonomic nervous system. Each issue highlights the most advanced and successful approaches to diagnosis, functional assessment, surgical intervention, pharmacologic treatment, rehabilitation, and more.
