Resumo: Guillain-Barre syndrome (GBS) is a group of autoimmune diseases characterised by acute, acquired and immune-mediated polyneuroradiculopathy. A large number of clinical subtypes of GBS have been described over last 100 years since the first description of this syndrome. We report two such cases GBS variants--first, AMAN with brisk reflexes and second being acute motor axonal neuropathy with conduction block. Through this case report, we intend to make the treating physicians and neurologist aware of these rare variants so that such cases would be appropriately diagnosed and treated.
