[Acute polyneuritis in non-A, non-B hepatitis].
Neurologic involvement may occur in the course of acute viral hepatitis; acute polyneuritis is an extremely infrequent manifestation. Hepatic failure, leading to death on the 10th day of disease, became manifest in a 26-year-old man on the 6th day of postinfectious polyneuritis Guillain-Barré-Strohl requiring ventilation. Clinical aspects, additional diagnostic assessment and post mortem findings supported diagnosis of nonA-non-B hepatitis. A causal connection between both disease entities appears likely.
