Abstract
We report the case of a patient with acute lymphoblastic leukaemia who, after the initiation of treatment with vincristine (VCR), developed a fulminant motor polyradiculoneuropathy resembling an axonal variant of Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS). This report shows that differentiating between axonal GBS and VCR-induced acute neurotoxicity may be a challenge for clinicians.Entities:
