  • Title: Chronic relapsing multifocal sensory-motor neuropathy with conduction block.
    Author: Sharoqi IA, Sadoh DR, Koutroumanidis M, Panayiotopoulos CP.
    Journal: J Peripher Nerv Syst; 1998; 3(2):133-6. PubMed ID: 10959247.
    Abstract:
    A 47 years old man had 13 episodes of relapsing and remitting sensory-motor neuropathy involving the upper limbs over the last 20 years. All but the last episode resolved spontaneously within 2 months. Neurophysiology revealed multifocal motor and sensory conduction block in the upper limbs with normal terminal latencies. CSF analysis was normal and anti-GM1 antibodies were not detected. There was a dramatic clinical improvement after intravenous immunoglobulin treatment. This case represents an unusual multifocal variant of chronic inflammatory demyelinating neuropathy.
