ABSTRACT: We report a successful
treatment of the first reported case of Guillaine-Barre Syndrome (GBS) detected
post Off Pump Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery (OPCAB). A 70-year-old man
underwent OPCAB surgery for Triple Vessel Disease. In the post-operative period
he developed respiratory distress with unexplained weakness in the limbs. CSF
study confirmed Guillaine-Barre Syndrome. He was administered immunoglobulin
therapy. The patient fully recovered and was discharged in good health.
