DAL VERME, Agustín et al. Diplejía facial con parestesias: Una variante atípica del síndrome de Guillain-Barré. Medicina (B. Aires) [online]. 2015, vol.75, n.3, pp.178-180. ISSN 1669-9106.

Guillain-Barré syndrome is an acute demyelinating disease which presents in a classic form with muscular weakness and the lack of reflexes. There are multiple variations and atypical forms of the disease, being facial diplegia with paresthesia one of them. Also, the absence of reflexes in this syndrome is typical but not constant, since 10% of patients present reflexes. We describe a case of atypical presentation with bilateral facial palsy, paresthesia, brisk reflexes and weakness in the lower limbs in a 33 year old woman.
