A rare case of Guillain-Barre syndrome after snakebite in young male and review of literature.

Guillain-Barre syndrome (GBS) is an autoimmune disorder affecting the peripheral nervous system, often triggered by infections. This important medical emergency can also have noninfectious causes, such as trauma, surgery, medication (including vaccinations), and other systemic disorders. Here, we present a rare case of GBS following a snakebite. A 19-year-old man presented to the emergency department with quadriparesis and areflexia after showing initial recovery from a snakebite. Nerve conduction studies revealed motor axonal polyneuropathy. He was treated with intravenous immunoglobulin, which improved his clinical condition. This case report highlights a rare cause of GBS and emphasizes that timely recognition and treatment can significantly reduce morbidity and mortality. Additionally, we reviewed past literature of this rare association.
