RESUMO

Brucellosis is a multisystemic disease that can present with multiple signs and symptoms. Rarely, brucellosis can manifest as neurobrucellosis, with central or peripheral nervous system involvement. Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) is a post-infectious autoimmune disease that progresses rapidly, causing ascending muscle weakness, and is accompanied by areflexia/hyporeflexia. Regarding GBS etiology, it is thought to be an autoimmune disease, triggered by a previous bacterial or viral infection. There are a few Brucella-associated GBS case reports in the literature and in our opinion, only one of them is a pediatric patient. Herein we reported a case of GBS associated with neurobrucellosis, who was successfully treated with therapeutic plasmapheresis (TP) due to poor response to IVIG treatment.
