Abstract

ROZO HERNANDEZ, Víctor Manuel et al. Overlap of Miller Fisher syndrome and Bickerstaff encephalitis in pediatrics: Case report. Acta Neurol Colomb. [online]. 2018, vol.34, n.2, pp.139-145. ISSN 0120-8748.  https://doi.org/10.22379/24224022203.

To describe the pediatric case of the overlap of Miller Fisher syndrome and Bickerstaff encephalitis in the presence of an anti-GQ1b positive antibody profile in a 6-year-old boy who presents with a brainstem compromise and progress to encephalopathy with peripheral nerve compromise, the present case is relevant in relation to the scarcity of similar articles in pediatric literature with few precedents in the literature published to date.

Keywords : Miller Fisher Syndrome; Bickerstaff's brainstem encephalitis; Anti-GQ1b antibody (MeSH).
