Autor(es): Marks H. G.; Augustyn P.; Allen R. J.


Resumo: Fisher's syndrome is characterized by ophthalmoplegia, ataxia, and areflexia. The clinical course is usually benign with complete recovery. We report a case that developed following a bee sting and review the literature of Fisher's syndrome in children. Its history, pathogenesis, and relationship to Guillain-Barré syndrome are also discussed.
