Guillain-Barré syndrome associated with Puumula Hantavirus infection.

We report the case of a 62-year-old man who developed Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) following Hantavirus infection. Only three similar cases have been described in the literature so far. GBS is an autoimmune disease characterized by progressive symmetrical weakness of lower limbs extending to upper limbs and face and low or absent tendon reflexes. Prompt diagnosis is mandatory as GBS is a potentially life threatening disorder and needs timely treatment to ensure fast recovery and fewer complications.
