Complex Neurological Sequelae: Axonal Guillain-Barré Syndrome Post COVID-19 in a Young Patient

Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) encompasses a spectrum of immune-mediated neuropathies, with axonal GBS representing a less common yet often severe subtype. This variant directly damages peripheral nerve axons, resulting in rapid and profound muscle weakness and sensory deficits. Axonal GBS has similar clinical features to the demyelinating form but is generally more severe with a less favorable prognosis. Here, we present a case of axonal GBS in a 46-year-old female following a mild COVID-19 infection, highlighting the diagnostic challenges and the importance of tailored therapeutic approaches and multidisciplinary care in managing this condition.
