Abstract:
Miller Fisher syndrome is a syndrome of acute external ophthalmoplegia, ataxia and areflexia without significant motor or sensory deficit in the limbs and usually results in complete recovery without specific treatment. It's accurate anatomic lesion sites and pathogeneiss is still unknown.
