Özet
Acute motor axonal neuropathy (AMAN) is a subtype of Guillain Barré syndrome. Characteristic electrophysiological featuresof AMAN are reduced amplitude or absence of muscle action potentials. Our patient described progressive weakness in his legand was not able to independently walk; he had a feeling weakness in his arms within 24 h after the onset of symptoms. Hewas diagnosed with AMAN according to the clinical and electrophysiological features. He could independently walk after twoyears following intensive physical therapy and monitoring. Neurologists and physiatrist should conduct long term monitoring andrehabilitation for patients with AMAN because neurological deficits may persist for a long time.
