[Clinical types of Guillain-Barré syndrome]

A detailed history and the results of the physical examination of seven patients with unusual and not typical Guillain-Barré syndrome were described. The patients presented various levels of lesions and some signs and symptoms were not typical of classic clinical features. The variety of the clinical picture suggests the damage of nervous system in many places and at various levels, not only in the peripheral nerves, but also in the central nervous system. The heterogeneity of aetiology and aetiopathogenesis and immunological individual patient's reaction probably is the cause of the involvement of different structures.
