Despite the wide literature describing the features of Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) in different populations worldwide, Colombian data are very scarce. We aim to characterize patients with GBS in a general hospital setting in Colombia. We conducted a retrospective chart review of GBS cases managed at the Hospital Universitario Fundación Santa Fe de Bogotá, from 2011 to 2016. Twenty-three patients were included. The most commonly reported symptoms were paresthesias (65%), pain (61%), proximal (22%) and distal (74%) limb weakness, and facial palsy (30%). 9% of patients had Fisher syndrome and 21% had other variants: Bickerstaff, pharyngeal-cervical-brachial pattern, and facial diplegia. There was a predominance of the demyelinating form (70%), with only 22% of patients presenting with the axonal variants. Our results are concordant with previous studies in Colombia.
尽管有大量文献描述了全球不同人群中吉兰-巴雷综合征（GBS）的特征，但哥伦比亚的数据非常有限。我们旨在描述哥伦比亚一家综合医院中 GBS 患者的特征。我们对 2011 年至 2016 年期间在波哥大 Fundacion Santa Fe 大学医院接受治疗的 GBS 病例进行了回顾性图表审查。共纳入 23 例患者。最常报告的症状是感觉异常（65%）、疼痛（61%）、近端（22%）和远端（74%）肢体无力以及面瘫（30%）。9%的患者为 Fisher 综合征，21%为其他变异型：Bickerstaff、咽颈臂型和面瘫。脱髓鞘型占优势（70%），仅有 22%的患者为轴索性变异型。我们的结果与哥伦比亚之前的研究一致。
