Abstract

We read with interest the article recently published by Gologorsky et al.,1 which reported two unusual cases of brainstem encephalitis and suggested they may represent atypical variants of Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS). Although they are correct in recognizing that “incomplete” forms of Fisher syndrome (FS) and Bickerstaff brainstem encephalitis (BBE) exist and may overlap with other forms of GBS, the clinical features and laboratory investigations presented here do not support a diagnosis of GBS variants.
