摘要
Guillain⁃Barré syndrome (GBS) is an immune-mediated peripheral neuropathy with acute or subacute onset of flaccid paralysis of the limbs with symmetrical hypesthesia and autonomic nerve involvement [1]. The clinical manifestations of autonomic nerve damage are complex and varied, which may involve extensive or limited autonomic function damage, including abnormalities of the skin, pupil, urinary tract, gastrointestinal tract, cardiovascular system, body temperature, lacrimal and salivary glands, and sexual function, etc. [2], and some patients may even have autonomic nerve damage as the only symptom, which is a variant of GBS and is prone to misdiagnosis or underdiagnosis. Recurrence of GBS is rare, and the manifestations of recurrence are often similar to those of the first symptoms [3], but the patient admitted to our hospital had syncope as the main clinical manifestation of recurrence, which was completely different from that of the first incidence, and syncope is not a common and typical clinical manifestation of GBS, so misdiagnosis is highly likely.
