Int J Res Med Sci. 2026;14(2):708-710.DOI10.18203/2320-6012.ijrms20260018
Abstract
Hyper immunoglobulin E (IgE) syndrome (HIES), also known as Job's syndrome, is a rare primary immunodeficiency disorder characterized by elevated levels of serum IgE, recurrent skin and lung infections, and eczema. Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) is an acute autoimmune condition that affects the peripheral nervous system, leading to muscle weakness and paralysis. This case report presents a unique instance of a 24-year-old male diagnosed with both HIES and GBS, exploring the clinical presentations, diagnostic challenges, and treatment approach.
