The Miller Fisher syndrome, Guillain-Barre syndrome and Bickerstaff's brainstem encephalitis are related conditions in which anti-GQ1b antibody positivity occur in varied frequencies. This report demonstrates the presence of corticobulbar and corticospinal dysfunction in BBE, by means of a novel transcranial magnetic stimulation technique. It further supports the presence of protean manifestations in anti-GQ1b IgG antibody-positive spectrum of disorders.
米勒-费希尔综合征、吉兰-巴雷综合征和比克斯特法夫脑干脑炎是相关病症,其中抗GQ1b抗体阳性以不同频率出现。本报告通过一种新型经颅磁刺激技术证明了比克斯特法夫脑干脑炎中存在皮质延髓束和皮质脊髓功能障碍。它进一步支持了抗GQ1b IgG抗体阳性疾病谱中存在多种表现。
