متن کاملConduction block in acute motor axonal neuropathy.
Guillain-Barré syndrome is divided into two major subtypes, acute inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy and acute motor axonal neuropathy. The characteristic electrophysiological features of acute motor axonal neuropathy are reduced amplitude or absence of distal compound muscle action potentials indicating axonal degeneration. In contrast, autopsy study results show early nodal changes in ...
متن کاملSevere Pure Acute Motor Axonal Neuropathy
Acute motor axonal neuropathy (AMAN) is a subtype of Guillain–Barré syndrome. Characteristic electrophysiological features of AMAN are reduced amplitude or absence of muscle action potentials. Our patient described progressive weakness in his leg and was not able to independently walk; he had a feeling weakness in his arms within 24 h after the onset of symptoms.

متن کاملA Case of Acute Motor and Sensory Axonal Neuropathy Following Hepatitis A Infection
Acute motor and sensory axonal neuropathy (AMSAN) are recently described subtypes of Guillain-Barre syndrome characterized by acute onset of distal weakness, loss of deep tendon reflexes, and sensory symptoms. A 21-yr-old male was transferred to our hospital due to respiration difficulties and progressive weakness. In laboratory findings, immunoglobulin M antibodies against hepatitis A were det...
