Guillain–Barré syndrome (GBS) is a rare neurological complication of hepatitis B. GBS presence in acute hepatitis E virus (HEV) and cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection is also sporadically reported. Here, a rare case of GBS in a chronic Hepatitis B virus carrier co-infected with HEV and CMV was reported. Based on the analysis on the progress of the manifestations and virus serological detection results, it could be concluded that GBS might mostly likely result from super-infection of HEV and CMV. This case report is clinically important in that it provides a good example of differential diagnosis and appropriate treatment on such a rare but life-threatening case. J. Med.
