초록

The Guillain-Barre Syndrome(GBS), also called acute inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy and Landry's ascending paralysis, is an inflammatory disorder of the peripheral nerves - those outside the brain and spinal cord. It is characterized by the rapid onset of weakness and, often, paralysis of the legs, arms, breathing muscles and face. Finally, it leads to respiratory embarrassment and death. There is often a history of antecedent respiratory or gastrointestinal infection. Recently one patient was admitted with GBS. This patient was a 30 year-old man with quadriparesis, both facial palsy, numbness of hands and feet, and gait disturbance. After two weeks of oriental medicine and acupuncture treatment most symptoms improved. Therefore, this application of oriental medicine is reported with a plea for further investigation.
