概要 Background: Guillain–Barré syndrome (GBS) is an acute inflammatory neuropathy characterized by areflexic quadriparesis. Urinary dysfunction has been known to occur in approximately 25% of GBS patients during the clinical course and usually emerges during peak motor weakness. According to the diagnostic criteria for GBS, bladder dysfunction at onset makes the diagnosis of GBS rather doubtful. We report here a rare case of GBS that initially manifested as motor weakness with urinary dysfunction and hyperreflexia. Case presentation: A 66-year-old Japanese man experienced mild weakness in his hands that extended to the entire upper extremities the following day. At the same time, he started experiencing difficulty voiding. On the fourth day after the onset of weakness, he was admitted to Saitama Medical Center, Kawagoe, Japan, because of an inability to stand up without support. Neurological examination revealed moderate generalized weakness, hyperreflexia, and poor urinary volume and flow. Early in hospitalization, his deep tendon reflexes gradually decreased and ultimately he became areflexic. A nerve conduction study indicated the axonal form of GBS. He was treated with immunoads
