Acquired neuropathies

Journal of Neurology, 2013
Acquired neuropathies represent most of the neuropathies encountered in clinical practice. Hundreds of causes have been identified even though up to 41% of patients are still classified as idiopathic (Rajabally and Shah in J Neurol 258:1431-1436, 1).

Infectious Neuropathies

Continuum, 2014
Infections are important, potentially treatable causes of peripheral nervous system disease. This article reviews the clinical presentation and management of several common peripheral nervous system diseases due to viral, bacterial, spirochetal, and parasitic infections.The clinical presentation and evaluation of infectious peripheral nervous system ...

Uremic neuropathy

2013
Polyneuropathy is a common complication of end-stage renal failure especially when treatment with periodic hemodialysis is started too late. Large myelinated fibers bear the brunt of the many biological changes associated with renal failure. Nerve conduction slowing is common in this setting.

Paraproteinemic Neuropathies

Continuum, 2014
Monoclonal gammopathies are common in the general population and occur in 10% of patients with peripheral neuropathy. It is important for the clinician to be able to determine whether an association exists between the paraprotein and the neuropathy. The clinical phenotype of the neuropathy, as well as the type of monoclonal protein, provides clues for ...

Entrapment neuropathies

Current Opinion in Neurology, 1999
Entrapment neuropathies occur when nerves are chronically compressed or mechanically injured at specific locations. Some of these focal neuropathies such as carpal tunnel syndrome are common, and others such as neurogenic thoracic outlet syndrome are rare.

Diabetic neuropathies

Current Treatment Options in Neurology, 2000
There are currently no treatments available (beyond optimal control of hyperglycemia) that arrest or reverse progressive diabetic polyneuropathy. Consultation with a diabetologist is indicated for patients with poorly controlled disease and polyneuropathy. Immunotherapy for diabetic lumbosacral plexopathy has been advocated but is not supported to date

Neurofibromatous neuropathy

Muscle & Nerve, 1990
AbstractThree cases of chronic distal sensorimotor neuropathy are described in patients with neurofibromatosis. One had type 2 or central neurofibromatosis with a chromosome 22 deletion; the precise form of the disease was not established in the other two. A striking clinical feature was a diffuse nodular enlargement of the peripheral nerves.

Painful neuropathies

Current Opinion in Neurology, 1998
Pain following peripheral nerve lesion appears to be a paradox because damage of primary afferent nerve fibres carrying nociceptive information should result in hypoalgesia. The very existence of neuropathic pain therefore implies fundamental changes of nociceptive processing and there have been considerable advances in the understanding of factors ...

Infectious neuropathy

Current Opinion in Neurology, 2007
Infectious neuropathy affects a large number of people worldwide. There is evidence of direct involvement of nerves by the infective agent, from the immune reaction of the patient or secondary to the toxicity of the drugs used during treatment. This group of neuropathies is often treatable or preventable.There is a complex clinical picture of the ...
