Abstract

Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) is an acute peripheral neuropathy often preceded by respiratory or gastrointestinal infections, though molecular testing of cerebrospinal fluid is often inconclusive. In a recent case of severe pediatric GBS in British Columbia, Canada, we detected cerebrospinal fluid antibodies against enterovirus D to link GBS with prior enterovirus D68 respiratory infection.
