Guillain-Barré syndrome with overlap between the finger drop variant and acute bulbar palsy: a case report

To the best of our knowledge, this is the first reported case of an overlap between the finger drop variant and acute bulbar palsy in GBS, highlighting the importance of considering GBS when patients present with a combination of atypical symptoms. Anti-ganglioside antibodies can be helpful and add diagnostic value in these complex cases.

Abstract

To the best of our knowledge, this is the first reported case of an overlap between the finger drop variant and acute bulbar palsy in GBS, highlighting the importance of considering GBS when patients present with a combination of atypical symptoms. Anti-ganglioside antibodies can be helpful and add diagnostic value in these complex cases.
