摘要
Though the novel corona virus (COVID-19) mostly affects the respiratory system, it can also result in several neurological complications. One of these is Guillain-Barre Syndrome (GBS) and which is rare and only reported from some parts of the world during this pandemic. Guillain-Barre syndrome (GBS) is an immune-mediated polyradicu-loneuropathy. Patients can present with limb or cranial-nerves weakness, loss of deep tendon reflexes, sensory and dysautonomic symptoms. The main pathophysiology for the clinical presentation is demyelination and/or axonal damage to peripheral nerves or roots. Neurological manifestations are more commonly associated with severe COVID-19 infection. Here, we present a case of Guillain-Barre syndrome associated with COVID-19 in Ethiopia.
