Francisella tularensis is a small Gram-negative aerobic intracellular bacterium that should be considered as a possible pathogen in patients with fever, pharyngitis, and lymphadenopathia. Central nervous system manifestations have been rarely reported. We describe a patient who developed serious Guillain-Barré polyneuropathy as a rare complication of ulceroglandular tularemia.
