Bickerstaff brainstem encephalitis, widely considered to be associated with Miller Fisher and Guillain-Barré syndromes, is a rare disease state defined by the triad of ophthalmoplegia, ataxia, and decreased consciousness. The presence of central nervous system involvement, commonly in the form of impaired arousal, solidifies it as a unique entity. We present a case of this rare syndrome after autologous stem cell transplant.
Bickerstaff 脑干脑炎,被广泛认为与 Miller Fisher 和 Guillain-Barré 综合征有关,是一种罕见的疾病状态,其特征为眼肌瘫痪、共济失调和意识减退三联征。中枢神经系统受累的存在,通常表现为意识障碍,使其成为一种独特的实体。我们在自体干细胞移植后报告了一例这种罕见综合征。
