Distal limb weakness variant of Guillain- Barré syndrome: A mild form of acute motor axonal neuropathy after Campylobacter jejuni enteritis

Abstract

Background: Distal limb weakness of Guillain-Barré syndrome (DL-GBS) is a recently proposed reginal variant of GBS, which shows muscular weakness limitedly at distal limbs (wrists, hand, ankles, and toes) with preserved muscle power at proximal limbs (shoulders, elbows, hips, and/or knees) throughout the disease course.
