Spinal deformity associated with Guillain-Barre syndrome (GBS) is not commonly reported. We present a 6-year-old girl who developed kyphoscoliosis after being diagnosed GBS. She had extensive motor deficits requiring 2 hospitalizations and treatment with IV immunoglobulin therapy. Five months after diagnosis, she presented to our clinic with a 15° coronal scoliosis and a 65° thoracic kyphosis. At 6-month follow-up, kyphosis progressed to 77° with no significant change in the coronal curve. At 1 year, sagittal alignment was within normal limits and the coronal curve had completely resolved.
Spinal deformity in GBS can resolve spontaneously.
吉兰-巴雷综合征(GBS)相关的脊柱畸形并不常见。我们报告了一位 6 岁女孩,她在诊断出 GBS 后出现了脊柱后凸侧凸。她有广泛的运动功能障碍,需要住院 2 次,并接受静脉免疫球蛋白治疗。诊断后 5 个月,她因 15°冠状面侧凸和 65°胸段后凸来我院就诊。6 个月随访时,后凸进展至 77°,冠状面曲线无明显变化。1 年后,矢状面排列恢复正常,冠状面曲线完全消失。
GBS 中的脊柱畸形可自发缓解。
