Multifocal Motor Neuropathy: Case Reports [PDF]
Multifocal motor neuropathy (MMN) is a chronic demyelinating neuropathy mainly characterized by multifocal distribution; affecting only motor nerve fibers of two or more peripheral nerves, with the absence of symptoms and signs of upper motor neuron ...

Immunoglobulin for multifocal motor neuropathy. [PDF]
Multifocal motor neuropathy (MMN) is a rare, probably immune-mediated disorder characterised by slowly progressive, asymmetric, distal weakness of one or more limbs with no objective loss of sensation. It may cause prolonged periods of disability. Treatment options for MMN are few.

Nerve enlargement differs among chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy subtypes and multifocal motor neuropathy [PDF]
Objective: We aimed to evaluate differences in ultrasonographic nerve enlargement sites among typical chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy (CIDP), distal CIDP, multifocal CIDP and multifocal motor neuropathy (MMN) in a Japanese ...
