ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Inclusion body myositis (IBM) is an inflammatory myopathy with an insidious onset, often making diagnosis challenging. Although neuroimaging has recently been included in diagnostic criteria, the role of muscle ultrasound—despite being a rapid and cost‐effective tool—in IBM has been less extensively characterized.

ABSTRACT Herpes zoster ophthalmicus (HZO) refers to reactivation of varicella–zoster virus involving the ophthalmic division of the trigeminal nerve. Guillain‐Barré syndrome (GBS) has been infrequently reported following herpes zoster infection, and its occurrence after HZO is particularly uncommon.

Case Report: Recurrent Guillain–Barré Syndrome in a 56‐Year‐Old Male
ABSTRACT Recurrent Guillain–Barré syndrome (GBS) is an uncommon variant of immune‐mediated polyradiculoneuropathy. We report a 56‐year‐old male who had two distinct episodes of acute inflammatory demyelinating neuropathy within the span of 3 months. The first episode presented with an episode of ascending paralysis and areflexia, with nerve conduction ...

Unusual presentation of hereditary neuropathy with liability to pressure palsies
Background Hereditary neuropathy with liability to pressure palsies (HNPP) is an autosomal-dominant painless peripheral neuropathy characterized by episodes of repeated focal pressure neuropathies at sites of entrapment/compression, with a considerable ...

Consensus on the Clinical Use of Pregabalin in Peripheral Neuropathic Pain
Pregabalin, a second‐generation α2δ calcium‐channel ligand, exerts potent analgesic effects in peripheral neuropathic pain by reducing calcium influx, suppressing excitatory neurotransmitter release, and decreasing neuronal hyperexcitability. Based on a PRISMA‐guided review of 139 studies and multidisciplinary expert consensus, pregabalin demonstrates ...

Nerve Ultrasound Detects Peripheral Nerve Enlargement in Cerebrotendinous Xanthomatosis
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis (CTX) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder caused by variants in the CYP27A1 gene, resulting in cholestanol accumulation in various tissues, including peripheral nerves. Polyneuropathy is common but often under‐recognized in CTX.

The Electrophysiology of Disease Remission in Chronic Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyneuropathy
Electrophysiological quasi‐normalisation may occur in a third of subjects with typical CIDP in clinical remission off treatment and may be more likely with prompt diagnosis/treatment. Electrophysiological amelioration may be observed in all tested nerves in CIDP in clinical remission off treatment.

Endoscopically Assisted Anterior Subcutaneous Transposition of Ulnar Nerve
Ulnar nerve compression at the elbow is the most common neuropathy of the upper extremity. Surgical options include in situ decompression, decompression with anterior transposition of the ulnar nerve, and medial epicondylectomy with or without ...

ABSTRACT Background and Aims Pathogenic variants in NEFL, the gene that encodes the light polypeptide subunit of neurofilaments, are an uncommon cause of autosomal recessive Charcot‐Marie‐Tooth (CMT) disease. In this study, we describe the clinical and electrophysiological features of two families with early‐onset CMT carrying nonsense variants in the ...
