abstract = {The association of a posterior reversible encephalopathy
syndrome (PRES) without arterial hypertension with
autoimmune-mediated inflammatory neuropathies such as
Guillain–Barré syndrome (GBS) is a rare and poorly
understood phenomenon. To date, PRES has been described as
initial manifestation, coincidental finding, or adverse
event subsequent to immunomodulatory treatment with
intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) in cases of axonal and
demyelinating GBS as well as in Miller–Fisher syndrome
(MFS). We here report a case of MFS/Bickerstaff brain stem
encephalitis (BBE)–overlap syndrome and nonhypertensive
PRES that occurred in close temporal association with IVIG
treatment and caused stroke. Immunoadsorption ameliorated
the disease course. Our case supports the notion that in
severe cases, immunoadsorption should be considered as
first-line therapy instead of IVIG for rapid removal of IgG
and thus to hasten recovery and improve functional outcome.},
