A 70-year-old patient is described who developed symptoms and signs of a Guillain-Barré-type neuropathy and encephalopathy beginning 6 weeks after a cutaneous varicella zoster eruption. The patient made a complete symptomatic recovery over a period of 4 months. It is suggested that the delayed onset neuropathy and encephalopathy in this patient may have been due to an allergic inflammatory response to an antigen common to peripheral and central myelin.
本文描述了一名70岁患者,在水痘带状疱疹皮疹出现6周后,出现了吉兰-巴雷综合征样的神经病变和脑病的症状及体征。该患者在4个月内症状完全恢复。提示该患者延迟出现的神经病变和脑病可能是由于对外周和中枢髓鞘共同抗原的过敏炎症反应所致。
