ABSTRACT
We report a severe case of Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) characterized by flaccid areflexive tetraplegia and signs of autonomic instability related to acute HIV-1 infection, and the occurrence of relapse episodes coinciding with the detection of HIV-1 RNA in blood during the phase of irregular treatment with antiretroviral agents. The patient has been asymptomatic for 3 years and has an HIV-1 load below the limit of detection. The recurrence of GBS in this case may be related to alterations of the immunologic response caused by disequilibrium in the host-HIV relationship due to the increase in HIV-1 viremia.
RESUMO
É reportado um caso grave de Síndrome de Guillain-Barré (SGB) caracterizado por tetraplegia flácida arreflexa e sinais de instabilidade autonômica relacionado com infecção aguda pelo HIV-1, e a ocorrência de episódios de recidivas coincidentes com a detecção do RNA-HIV-1 no sangue, durante fases de tratamento irregular com antiretrovirais. O paciente encontra-se assintomático há 3 anos e com a carga viral do HIV-1 abaixo do limite de detecção. A ocorrência de SGB, neste caso, pode estar relacionada com alterações da resposta imunológica ocasionada por desequilíbrio na relação hospedeiro-HIV devido ao aumento da viremia do HIV-1.
