abstract：OBJECTIVE:To report eight cases of sensory Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS). BACKGROUND:The concept of sensory equivalent to ascending paralysis of GBS was raised in 1958, and the diagnostic criteria for a sensory loss and areflexia variant of GBS were proposed in 1981. However, clinical cases meeting these criteria have...
