    Description / Table of Contents: Sommario Sono riportati i dati clinici, radiologici ed elettrofisiologici di due pazienti con sindrome di Miller Fisher (SMF), caratterizzata da atassia, oftalmoplegia ed areflessia. Di tutte le indagini eseguite solo quelle elettrofisiologiche trofisiologiche hanno fornito indizi sulla sede anatomica delle lesioni e sulle strutture coinvolte, evidenziando un quadro significativo di alterazioni del troncoencefalo. Gli autori discutono il ruolo delle teorie centrale e periferica alla base di questi dati e sottolineano che le informazioni elettrofisiologiche avvalorano la prima delle due ed indicano la necessità di riconoscere nella SMF una entità clinica distinta.
    Notes: Abstract Clinical, radiological and electrophysiological data in two patients with ‘Miller Fisher syndrome’ (MFS), characterized by ataxia, ophthalmoplegia and areflexia are reported. Of the many tests performed only the electrophysiological findings provided any clue to the site of the lesions and the structure involved, showing a significant pattern of brainstem dysfunction. The authors discuss the role of central and peripheral lesion theory in the light of these data and stress that electrophysiological findings lend considerable weight to the former and support the hypothesis that MFS should be recognize as a distinct clinical entity.
