Abstract
Landry Guillain-Barre syndrome is an acute onset, progressive, bilateral symmetrical polyneuropathy of autoimmune origin. Neuropathy is due to immune attack of the peripheral nerve antigens, which exhibit molecular mimicry with the antigens of the preceding infectious agent, usually of acute respiratory and gastrointestinal illnesses. Pulmonary tuberculosis is wide- spread in developing countries and it is showing resurgence in the developed countries.
