Case report reveals bulbar palsy and ataxia in a female with atypical Miller-Fisher Syndrome, highlighting the importance of diagnosis.
The eponym “Landry Guillain-Barre syndrome” encompasses a wide spectrum of disorders characterized by acute-onset immune-mediated polyneuropathies. Some variants are associated with seropositivity for antibodies against GQ1b ganglioside, and are characterized by ophthalmoplegia, ataxia, and areflexia. We present a case of atypical Miller Fisher syndrome in a 26-year-old female who presented with pupillary involvement along with external ophthalmoplegia, bulbar palsy, and appendicular and axial ataxia.
