COVID-19-Associated Miller Fisher Syndrome: MRI Findings. uri icon

Overview

abstract

  • Miller Fisher syndrome, also known as Miller Fisher variant of Guillain-BarrĂ© syndrome, is an acute peripheral neuropathy that can develop after exposure to various viral, bacterial, and fungal pathogens. It is characterized by a triad of ophthalmoplegia, ataxia, and areflexia. Miller Fisher syndrome has recently been described in the clinical setting of the novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) without accompanying imaging. In this case, we report the first presumptive case of COVID-19-associated Miller Fisher syndrome with MR imaging findings.
