Zika fever, considered as an emerging disease of arboviral
origin, because of its expanding geographic area,
is known as a benign infection usually presenting as
an influenza-like illness with cutaneous rash. So far,
Zika virus infection has never led to hospitalisation.
We describe the first case of Guillain–Barré syndrome
(GBS) occurring immediately after a Zika virus infection,
during the current Zika and type 1 and 3 dengue
fever co-epidemics in French Polynesia.
