  • Title: Polyradiculoneuritis following botulinum toxin therapy.
    Author: Haug BA, Dressler D, Prange HW.
    Journal: J Neurol; 1990 Feb; 237(1):62-3. PubMed ID: 2319270.
    Abstract:
    The development of Guillain-Barré syndrome is reported in a patient, who had previously received botulinum toxin type A injections into both orbicularis oculi muscles to treat idiopathic blepharospasm. The possibility of a causal relationship is discussed with consideration of the literature on adverse effects of vaccinations and of Clostridium botulinum and its toxin.
