Article Abstract

is an autoimmune disorder presented by ascending paralysis and areflexia. The condition has been reported after many infections, but Guillain-Barré syndrome after spine surgery is rare. We, herein, present a case of Guillain-Barré syndrome after multiple spine surgeries for degenerative lumbar scoliosis. A 60-year-old woman with degenerative scoliosis underwent surgery for the third time and developed Guillain-Barré syndrome 3 weeks after the final operation. The patient received intravenous immune globulin therapy and needed mechanical ventilation and intensive care. She was discharged in good condition after 5 weeks.

Importance: Sepsis remains a leading cause of death in infectious cases. The heterogeneity of immune responses is a major challenge in the management and prognostication of patients with sepsis. Identifying distinct immune response subphenotypes using parsimonious classifiers may improve outcome prediction, particularly in resource-limited settings.
