It may be acquired congenitally via maternal antibody transfer or postnatally after infection. We report a case of postnatally acquired neonatal GBS potentially triggered by SARS-CoV-2 with a review of the literature.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Patient<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A 24-day-old term male presented with progressive hypotonia, a weak cry, and respiratory distress. He had a preceding febrile illness with gastrointestinal symptoms. Examination revealed areflexia, cranial nerve involvement, and generalised weakness.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Investigations showed albuminocytologic dissociation in cerebrospinal fluid, cauda equina enhancement on magnetic resonance imaging, and motor-sensory polyneuropathy on nerve conduction studies. The infant had high anti-SARS-CoV-2 IgG (&gt;4000\u2005IU\/mL) with negative maternal titres. After 2 courses of intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIg), he recovered fully and remained developmentally normal at 2-year follow-up.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>GBS should be considered in floppy neonates with a postinfectious presentation.
