Fulminant Guillain–Barré syndrome secondary to Campylobacter coli infection: An autopsy case report
The most common infection preceding Guillain–Barré syndrome (GBS) is Campylobacter jejuni enteritis, although a few patients present with Campylobacter coli. We report a case of C. coli–induced fulminant GBS. A 61-year-old woman presented with bilateral limb weakness. Nerve conduction studies revealed a reduction of amplitude and C. coli was isolated from a fecal specimen, leading to the diagnosis of GBS. Although the patient was immediately administered immunoglobulin, her symptoms rapidly worsened and she died. Peripheral nerve autopsy revealed myelin ovoid, and infiltration of CD68-positive macrophages into nerves. More effective treatments for fulminant GBS need to be developed.
期刊介绍:
eNeurologicalSci provides a medium for the prompt publication of original articles in neurology and neuroscience from around the world. eNS places special emphasis on articles that: 1) provide guidance to clinicians around the world (Best Practices, Global Neurology); 2) report cutting-edge science related to neurology (Basic and Translational Sciences); 3) educate readers about relevant and practical clinical outcomes in neurology (Outcomes Research); and 4) summarize or editorialize the current state of the literature (Reviews, Commentaries, and Editorials). eNS accepts most types of manuscripts for consideration including original research papers, short communications, reviews, book reviews, letters to the Editor, opinions and editorials. Topics considered will be from neurology-related fields that are of interest to practicing physicians around the world. Examples include neuromuscular diseases, demyelination, atrophies, dementia, neoplasms, infections, epilepsies, disturbances of consciousness, stroke and cerebral circulation, growth and development, plasticity and intermediary metabolism. The fields covered may include neuroanatomy, neurochemistry, neuroendocrinology, neuroepidemiology, neurogenetics, neuroimmunology, neuroophthalmology, neuropathology, neuropharmacology, neurophysiology, neuropsychology, neuroradiology, neurosurgery, neurooncology, neurotoxicology, restorative neurology, and tropical neurology.
