AB  - Guillain-Barré  syndrome  (GBS)  is  an  acute,  frequently  severe,  and  fulminant  polyradiculoneuropathy  that  is  autoimmune  in  nature.  It  occurs  year-round  at  a  rate  of  between  1  and  4  cases  per  100,000  annually;  in  the  United  States,  ~5000–6000  cases  occur  per  year.  Males  are  at  slightly  higher  risk  for  GBS  than  females,  and  in  Western  countries,  adults  are  more  frequently  affected  than  children.
