Georges Guillain, together with Barré and Strohl, described two cases of self-limiting acute paralysis with peculiar changes in the cerebrospinal fluid

Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) is defined as a group of clinical syndromes with acute onset of peripheral neuropathy – axonal or demyelinating – secondary to an immune-mediated process[1] Plasma exchange has been widely used in autoimmune neurological diseases and is the standard treatment for myasthenia gravis crisis and GBS [2] Bulbar involvement, dysautonomia and severe muscle weakness were identified as the most important risk factors for mechanical ventilation among GBS[3]

Haber et al (2004) have been observed GBS after influenza-vacination. A rare case report of transient oculomotor palsy after an influenza vaccine in an inflammatory bowel disease patient was recently observed.[4]
