Guillain-Barre syndrome (GBS) is a rare autoimmune disease that often
manifests as a post-viral complication. However, its association with
Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is unclear.
We present a rare case of GBS secondary to COVID-19 infection
complicated by rapidly progressive sensorimotor deterioration resistant
to plasma exchange therapy.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
