Abstract
Miller-Fisher syndrome (MFS); characterized by ataxia, areflexia, and ophthalmoplegia, was first recognized as a distinct clinical entity in 1956. MFS is considered a variant of Guillain-Barre syndrom(GBS), accounting for 5 to 10% of GBS cases. Ataxia, ophthalmoplegia, areflexia , ptosis, diplopia, mydriasis, facial paralysis, hypoesthesi and rarely quadriparesis can occur in the clinical presentation of the disease. Although MFS is a clinical diagnosis, serological confirmation is possible by identifying the Anti-GQ1b antibody found in most of the affected patients. We prensented an atypical MFS case which is come with swallowing difficulties.
