Article Abstract
We describe a patient with acute multifocal motor neuropathy with conduction block(MMNCB)and high titers of immunoglobulin G anti-GM1 antibodies after Campylobacter jejuni enteritis.Treatment with intravenous immune globulin led to rapid improvement with return of normal function by 6 weeks.This is the first report of C jejuni enteritis preceding MMNCB.
