Abstract

In a system already preconditioned by previous damage, as results of the cytokine release syndrome complicating the COVID-19 disease, a small trigger may be sufficient to develop a SIADH complicating a GBS, even without a poor outcome.

Keywords: COVID‐19; Guillain‐Barré syndrome; SIADH; long‐term complication.
