[Neurosarcoidosis or Guillain-Barre syndrome complicating sarcoidosis]

Abstract

We described a young male with severe Guillain-Barré syndrome in whom pulmonary sarcoidosis was also detected. Based upon the results of diagnostic procedures (nerve biopsy, CSF examination, electrophysiological study) we postulate that this was a Guillain-Barré syndrome coexisting with sarcoidosis, and not the case of sarcoid neuropathy.
