Abstract

Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) is the most common acute peripheral polyneuropathy in the world. The estimated incidence in Colombia is 1.2-1.7 cases per 100 000 inhabitants, although during 2016 an increase in the incidence of the disease was documented, apparently associated with an epidemiological peak of the Zika virus. We conducted to describe the clinical and neurophysiological characteristics of adult patients with GBS treated at Hospital Universitario San Ignacio, Bogota, Colombia, between 2009 and 2017. An observational, descriptive, cross-sectional study was designed.
