Sažetak
Guillain-Barré syndrome is an acute monophasic immune mediated disease of the peripheral nervous system that usually occurs after diseases of the digestive or respiratory system. It can occur after influenza or rarely after vaccination against influenza. We present a 57-year-old patient with acute inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy after severe bilateral pneumonia and ARDS caused by influenza virus. Disease course was complicated by a new onset of quadriplegia caused by AIDP variant of Guillain-Barré syndrome. After treatment with immunoglobulins 0.4 g/kg/day for five days and after completion of physical therapy, two years after the onset of the disease, motor deficit of all four limbs recovered to the level of paralysis 4-5/5 degree.
