Guillain-Barr?syndrome(GBS) is a common demyelination disease of the peripheral nervous system. But recently, the axonal types are also reported. Acute transverse myelitis(ATM) is also a common inflammatory disease of the spinal cord. Generally, it is difficult to identify the etiology of GBS and ATM. I guess the occurrence of the 2 disease at once is hard to take the plase. A 63-years-old woman showed an acute motor axonal GBS and a cervival-upper thoracic ATM occurring at the same time. she ws treated by intravenous immunoglobulin and solumedrol therapy. Her sensory symptoms were improved rapidly but motor symptoms showed only mild improvement.
