Acute Bulbar Palsy and Ophtalmoplegia Associated With Anti-GT1a IgG Antibodies
Conclusions:
ABPp is classified as subtype of GBS. The most frequent clinical signs of ABPp are ophthalmoplegia, facial palsy, and ataxia. IgG anti-GT1a and/or anti-GQ1b are positive in a majority of patients with ABPp; however, these antibodies are not specific and can found in other subtypes of GBS.
