Guillain-Barre 증후군에서 변종; 동통과 혈청 Creatine Kinase 증가

Abstract

The Guillain-Barre syndrome (GBS) is often regarded as a predominantly motor neuropathy with few sensory features. But there are many variants in GBS. However, pain is a common symptom, and that is often a diagnostic and therapeutic problem in GBS patients. Although pain is acknowledged as a common symptom, the various pain syndromes seen in GBS often go unrecognized and may be undertreated. Serum creatine kinase (CK) elevation is seen in approximately one third of patients in the first week of GBS. Although the CK rise has been associated with the presence of pain, this was not always the case. We have seen 3 GBS patients with classic symptoms or not, with or without pain and serum CK elevation or not.
