[Acute severe neuropathies in the context of SARS-CoV-2 infection].
Revue medicale suisse(2021)
Abstract
Various neuromuscular complications have been described in SARS-CoV-2 infection, especially Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) and Critical Illness neuromyopathy (CI-NM). Two representative cases are discussed below. It appears that GBS shares most of the characteristics of classical post-infectious GBS, but SARS-CoV-2 may contribute to the increased incidence of CI-NM. Other rare complications have been described, including Tapia Syndrome and Kawasaki-like multiple system inflammatory syndrome. The question of vaccination and the risk of immune-mediated neuropathies remains open, but the lack of reported cases is reassuring as these complications usually occur within 6 weeks after vaccination.
