Peripheral Neuropathy Peripheral neuropathy (PN) affects two million people in the U.S., typically middle-aged and elderly individuals. It is a neurological disorder that affects the sensory, motor and/or autonomic nerves, and is caused by abnormal function of these nerves due to various etiologies. These disorders can originate from numerous causes, such as diabetes, alcoholism, HIV, toxin exposure, metabolic abnormalities, vitamin deficiency, or adverse effects of certain drugs. However, after evaluations for the etiologies of these PNs are performed, 32-70% of all peripheral neuropathies remain idiopathic. With the development of autoimumme and genetic tests, these idiopathic peripheral neuropathies can often be diagnosed. Autoimmune Peripheral Neuropathy Symptoms of an autoimmune peripheral neuropathy may include weakness, cramping, decreased tendon reflexes, numbness, tingling, and pain affecting the arms and/or legs. Clinically, peripheral neuropathies are classified according to various characteristics: symmetric or asymmetric, proximal or distal, acute or chronic, slowly progressive or rapid onset, affecting one (mononeuropathy) or many nerves (polyneuropathy). Upon electrophysiological examination, assessment of a neuropathy can be further classified, depending on which part of the peripheral nervous system is affected, such as the axon or myelin sheath. Peripheral neuropathy can be demyelinating, axonal, or both, as determined by electromyography (EMG) and nerve conduction studies (NCS).

A case of Motor Sensory Neuropathy This article submitted by Sumit Agarwal on 8/23/98. Email Address: mlgroup@lw1.vsnl.net.in Subject: An interesting case of hereditary motor sensory neuropathy Date: Sunday, August 23,1998 10:32 PM Dear Sir, My sister, Chhavi Agarwal, born 18th July,1979 is suffering from a neurological disorder which even the best neurologists in India have not been able to diaganose exactly. They have called it hereditary motor sensory neuropathy although they have not been able to match all the manifestations with any other previously known case. I would request you to spare a little of your precious time to study her case and suggest any remedies or further investigations. I shall feel highly indebted for your kind gesture. The following are manifestations of her problem as on date:- 1) Walks with more effort than a normal person, not able to sustain her body weight. 2) Cannot run 3) Will fall if pushed slightly or encounters obstruction at feet while walking. 4) Needs support and lot of effort to get up after sitting on floor or low chair or for climbing stairs.

Patient #26 Summary and Discussion Luciana DeSaibro Neurology Resident Diagnosis: Multifocal Motor Neuropathy with conduction block Patient #26 presented with slowly progressive asymmetrical limb weakness, atrophy, and fasciculations without evidence of sensory or upper motor neuron involvement. The pattern of weakness was primarily distal, and cranial nerves were not affected. These findings indicate a lower motor neuron syndrome or asymmetrical motor neuropathy. The differential diagnosis includes the various causes of motor neuron disease, chronic inflammatory demyelinating neuropathy, motor neuropathies, and mononeuritis multiplex. CIDP usually causes a symmetrical, distal, sensorimotor neuropathy primarily affecting the legs (though arms may be prominently affected, and proximal involvement is not unusual). Sensory symptoms are extremely common, and sensory signs are almost universal. However, rare cases of motor involvement without significant sensory signs have been described. In most cases, however, the motor involvement is symmetrical at onset and throughout the course of the disease. The clinical course is progressive with episodes of relapse. Reflexes are universally decreased and often absent. These features argue against CIDP as the cause of neuropathy in this case. The EMG/NCV findings also argue against CIDP, as motor conduction velocities are markedly slowed even in areas without conduction blocks in CIDP findings not present in this case. Mononeuritis multiplex (multiple mononeuropathies) may be caused by diabetes mellitus, vasculitis, sarcoidosis, infectious causes (HIV, Lyme, leprosy), HNPP (hereditary neuropathy with predisposition to pressure palsies), multiple nerve tumors (neurofibromatosis), and perineuromas. Clinically, mononeuritis multiplex typically presents with asymmetrical motor and sensory involvement and variable involvement of reflexes. It would be highly unusual for mononeuritis multiplex to present as a pure motor syndrome, as in this case. The long course of the disease without other accompanying features would also be highly unusual for any of the causes of multiple mononeuropathies.

Neuromuscular Diseases Muscle Diseases (Myopathy) Dermatomyositis (DM): DM is an auto immune muscle disease which occurs in children and adults. The cardinal sign of this disorder is the presence of a rash commonly over the upper chest and back or shoulders. Occasionally, a purplish (heliotrope) discoloration is present over the eyelids. Along with the rash, muscle weakness in the hips and shoulders is noted. The disease develops over weeks to months. The cause is unknown but involves inflammation of the blood vessels in the skin and muscle. Diagnosis is clinical with supportive evidence from blood levels of muscle enzymes ( CK or creatine kinase ), and EMG findings. Many people undergo muscle biopsy for a definitive diagnosis. The disease responds well to oral steroids but is sometimes resistant and may require treatment with azathioprine or IVIG Polymyositis (PM) PM is similar to DM but doesn't have the rash. Symptoms develop over weeks to months in most cases. The cause is usually unknown but occasionally, PM and DM are associated with cancer or rheumatoid conditions. Treatment is similar to that of DM. Drug-induced myositis: Several medications may lead to muscle damage. These include certain cholesterol lowering agents, colchicine, and ipecac.

Peripheral neuropathy is a group of conditions affecting the nerves outside the brain and spinal cord, interfering with their function. The term generally excludes single nerve lesions (mononeuropathy) due to entrapment of the nerve or trauma. The nerves at the extremities (e.g. hands and feet) are most commonly involved. The nerves affected may be sensory (touch), motor (activating the muscles) or autonomic (feeding organs and controlling sweating and blood pressure), or a combination of these types.

Contact Us Appointments What We Treat About Us ... Related Links Information for Health Care Professionals Continuing Medical Education Nerve and Muscle Disease Peripheral Neuropathies Introduction Peripheral neuropathies can be hereditary (passed within families) or acquired. Hereditary neuropathies often have characteristic clinical, electrodiagnostic, and genetic markers. An example of a hereditary neuropathy is Charcot-Marie Tooth (CMT) disease or hereditary sensory and motor neuropathy (HSMN). Acquired neuropathies, on the other hand, are more common and can be more difficult to diagnose. The most common cause of acquired polyneuropathy is diabetes mellitus. Other causes include Guillain-Barre syndrome or acute inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy (AIDP), chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy (CIDP), nerve compression, nutritional deficiencies, organ failure, tumors, and a variety of generalized disorders (including, but not limited to amyloidosis, connective tissue diseases, and vasculitis). Diagnosis Treatment The treatment of peripheral neuropathies depends on the underlying cause. For instance, therapy for peripheral neuropathy caused by diabetes involves control of the diabetes. A multi-disciplinary approach is used for all peripheral neuropathies, including treatment of pain and maintenance of strength and flexibility. This is accomplished by using appropriate neuropathic medications, immune-modulating agents (such as corticosteroids, azathioprine, cyclosporine, cyclophosphamide, mycophenolate, and rituximab), IVIG, therapeutic apheresis, and physical and occupational therapy.
