Evaluating the patient with peripheral nervous system complaints.
Patients commonly seek care from their family physicians for symptoms that are suggestive of peripheral nervous system (PNS) dysfunction. At some point in active practice, virtually all family physicians will be required to conduct at least an initial evaluation of a patient with PNS. The authors outline and describe common themes found in the symptoms and diagnoses of PNS dysfunctions. These t...
متن کاملO 30: Peripheral Nervous System Diseases and Inflammation
Inflammatory neuropathies may be due to infection (with a specific casual agent identified) including Lyme disease, HIV, Leprosy, Herpes Zoster, Hepatitis B & C. The other group of are Autoimmune or possibly infectious (but with no specific causal infectious agent identified) including sarcoidosis, Guillain-Barre syndrome/ acute inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy ( AIDP), chronic in...
متن کاملElectrodiagnostic study of peripheral nervous system in Behcet’s disease
Introduction: Bechcet’s disease (BD) is a chronic disease with multiple organ involvement such as central nervous system (CNS) and peripheral nervous system (PNS). Involvement of PNS has been reported controversially and uncommon in textbooks and literatures. The aim of this study in to evaluate the auxiliary role of electrodiagnosis in early detection of PNS involvement to prevent neuropathy...
متن کامل[Isolated vasculitis of the peripheral nervous system].
We present a patient with a subacute asymmetrical sensorimotor polyneuropathy. The pathological features were predominantly loss of nerve fibers, axonal degeneration and healed vasculitis. The epineural vessels were involved, while endoneurial capillaires were preserved. Muscle biopsy revealed neurogenic features with normal blood vessels. After three years, motor and sensory function was almos...
متن کاملMicrotubule dynamics in the peripheral nervous system
The special architecture of neurons in the peripheral nervous system, with axons extending for long distances, represents a major challenge for the intracellular transport system. Two recent studies show that mutations in the small heat shock protein HSPB1, which cause an axonal type of Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT) neuropathy, affect microtubule dynamics and impede axonal transport. Intriguingly, ...
