  • Title: Epidural morphine as an adjuvant to the treatment of pain in a patient with acute inflammatory polyradiculopathy secondary to Guillain-Barré syndrome.
    Author: Longobardi JJ, Comens R, Jacobs AM.
    Journal: J Foot Surg; 1991; 30(3):267-8. PubMed ID: 1875002.
    Abstract:
    The authors discuss a case of acute inflammatory polyradiculopathy in a patient with Guillain-Barré syndrome. Consultation with podiatry was requested in an effort to remit the severe lower extremity symptoms. Treatment using epidural morphine with subsequent results is discussed. It is the authors' opinion that Guillain-Barré syndrome is the most common acutely or subacutely evolving inflammatory, demyelinating, neuropathy in the United States.
