  • Title: A case of an accelerated uremic neuropathy.
    Author: Deger SM, Reis KA, Guz G, Bali M, Erten Y.
    Journal: Ren Fail; 2011; 33(3):371-2. PubMed ID: 21401366.
    Abstract:
    We present a 62-year-old man, with a prior history of diabetes mellitus, atherosclerotic heart disease, and chronic renal failure requiring peritoneal dialysis, who developed accelerated uremic sensorimotor polyneuropathy. Our patient significantly improved after effective hemodialysis. Although renal transplantation is a curable therapy for uremic neuropathy, effective dialysis is still an important treatment for the group of patients who cannot undergo renal transplantation.
