Tuberculous meningitis: An unlikely cause of Guillain-Barre syndrome.

Guillain-Barre syndrome (GBS) is a life-threatening immune-mediated acute inflammatory polyneuropathy and is associated with various antecedent infections. Its association with tuberculosis is very uncommon with only a handful of cases being reported in the literature. It's association with tuberculous meningitis is even more scarce with only one case reported in literature till date. We report a 40-year-old lady with GBS associated with tuberculous meningitis. GBS was confirmed with clinical examination and nerve conduction studies.
