Abstract
Guillain-Barre syndrome, acute inflammatory polyradiculoneuropathy, is sometimes accompanied by a typical ophthalmoplegia, usually with bilateral sixth nerve palsy. It also has a similar clinical appearance with Miller-Fisher syndrome, but it is differentiated by limb weakness without ataxia. We observed a 47 year old man with acute onset diplopia and bilateral sixth nerve palsy one week after URI symptoms, diagnosed as Guillain-Barre syndrome with ophthalmoplegia.
Key Words: Guillain-Barre syndrome;Ophthalmoplegia;Sixth nerve palsy
