  • Title: [Morphologic knowledge of polyneuropathy in progressive scleroderma].
    Author: Korting GW, Klee W.
    Journal: Hautarzt; 1984 Aug; 35(8):425-7. PubMed ID: 6480345.
    Abstract:
    The occurrence of polyneuropathy in connection with systemic sclerosis is extremely rare. Proliferative changes leading to mechanical compression of the nerves have been ascribed to an etiological involvement. In the case reported here, polyneuropathy could be verified morphologically (nervebiopsy). The elevated IgG in the cerebrospinal fluid suggests inflammatory changes of the nerves to be the cause of polyneuropathy.
