Faecal Incontinence in Gullain-Barre Syndrome with Bulbar Palsy-A Case Report with Review of Literature

Abstract

Autonomic dysfunction is common in association with Guillain-Barre Syndrome. Cardiovascular involvement is the most common in this context. But isolated faecal incontinence as parasympathetic hyperactivity is the rarest event. In this case report, we documented a case of Guillain-Barre Syndrome with bulbar palsy and diarrhoea for 3 weeks without detectable pathology and not responding to conventional therapies.
