A biopsy case of Landry-Guillain-Barré Syndrome

N. suralis taken from a patient showing the typical Landry-Guillain-Barre Syndrome was examined electron microscopically and showed degenerative changes of the myelin sheaths, Schwann cells, axons and unmyelinated nerve fibres. The changes in the unmyelinated nerve fibres might be concerned with disturbances of autonomic function.
