Extractions: S. Aitkens, N. Wright, and T. Abresch, MS. The purpose of this study was to develop a comprehensive impairment and disability profile for HMSN. Impairment was evaluated by measurements of strength, contractures, spine deformity, cardiac function, pulmonary function and intellectual capacity. Impairment frequently leads to disability. Disability evaluations consisted of measures of mobility and upper extremity function, cardiopulmonary adaptations, cardiac and pulmonary disease, and psychosocial adjustment. One hundred and twenty patients followed in a regional Neuromuscular Disease (NMD) Clinic, 1982-1992, were reviewed. Sixty-eight were males and fifty-two were females. Age was 44 ± 18 years and disease duration 33 ± 14 years at the time of the first clinic visit. Six percent were non-ambulatory, and age at loss of ambulation was 29 ± 14 years. Only two were known to have died during the ten year period. All participants from the clinic did not receive all measurements so the individuals in each of the impairment or disability profiles would be considered as samples of the larger clinic population.

Extractions: The Cleveland Clinic Foundation The peripheral nervous system can be involved in a wide range of medical disorders with various pathophysiologies (Table 1) It may be affected by numerous toxins, both drugs (Table 2) and industrial agents (Table 3) chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy (CIDP), and multifocal motor neuropathy with conduction block syndrome (MMNCB). Finally, a host of hereditary polyneuropathies may cause a wide range of peripheral neuropathy syndromes (Table 4) This diverse array of possible etiologies can make the diagnosis of peripheral neuropathies quite challenging. Nevertheless, diagnosis can be facilitated with a systematic approach that classifies the peripheral neuropathy on the basis of clinical features, taking into account the type of peripheral nerve fiber that may be involved ( ie, sensory, motor, or autonomic), the distribution or pattern of peripheral nerve-fiber involvement (ie, generalized and symmetric versus asymmetric and multifocal), and lastly, the mode of evolution (ie, acute, subacute, or chronic). DEFINITION Peripheral neuropathy, in the broadest sense, refers to a scope of clinical syndromes

Extractions: M.D, DNB, DCH(Gold Medalist), FCPS Case Report : A 5 year old female child, 3rd of 3 siblings born of third degree consanguineous marriage presented with intermittent fever since birth, self mutilation since 2½ years of age and ulcer over left middle toe with blackening since 10-12 days. Other 2 elder siblings had died (one due to fever at 2 months and second at 3 months due to altered sensorium). She was immunized till date, however there was no history of crying on receiving injections. She had multiple ulcers in the past and she required amputation of the left great toe due to gangrene at the age of 4½ years. Her milestones were delayed. At present she was able to only speak bisyllables and walk without support. On examination, there was an ulcer over the left second toe and she had absent left great toe. She had bitten off the distal phalynx of the right index finger (Figure 1).

Decisions regarding whom, when, and how to treat depend not only on the underlying etiology, but the nature of the clinical deficits, their severity and rate of progression, and the overall medical condition of the patient. In addition to administering specific treatment aimed at retarding the progression or resolving the neuropathy, care should also be directed to pain management, orthotics, and improving gait stability. This article will briefly discuss the clinical description, laboratory features, and treatment options of a select group of PNs most likely to be encountered in routine clinical practice. The reader is referred to the references for more detailed descriptions of these and other PNs. Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) The underlying pathology often determines the clinical severity and course. Improvement tends to be more rapid and complete in those cases with greater demyelinating than axonal pathology. GBS occurs at any age and has an annual incidence of 1-2/100,000. Two-thirds of patients have a premonitory illness, usually viral (cytomegalovirus, Epstein Barr virus, and HIV are most common). Myocplasma pneumoniae and Camplybacter jejuni are the most common non-viral pathogens. Documenting the nature of the preceding illness usually has little clinical value, except when GBS heralds HIV infection.

Extractions: It is possible that the main title of the report Neuropathy, Hereditary Sensory, Type I is not the name you expected. Please check the synonyms listing to find the alternate name(s) and disorder subdivision(s) covered by this report. Hereditary Sensory Neuropathy Type I (HSN I) is a rare genetic disorder characterized by the loss of sensation, especially in the feet and legs and, less severely, in the hands and forearms. The loss of sensation is caused by abnormal functioning of the autonomic nervous system, which controls responses to pain and temperature as well as other involuntary or automatic body processes. Hereditary Sensory Neuropathies of various types may attack a single nerve (mononeuropathy, mononeuritis), or several nerves in asymmetric areas of the body (mononeuritis multiplex), or many nerves simultaneously (polyneuropathy, polyneuritis, multiple peripheral neuritis). These symptoms may involve sensory, motor, reflex, or blood vessel (vasomotor) functions.

Diabetes and alcoholism are the most common etiologies of peripheral neuropathy in adults living in developed countries. The primary worldwide cause of treatable neuropathy is leprosy.[1] Neuropathies associated with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection account for an increasing number of cases. Peripheral neuropathy has numerous other causes, including hereditary, toxic, metabolic, infectious, inflammatory, ischemic and paraneoplastic disorders. The number of peripheral neuropathies for which an etiology cannot be found despite extensive evaluation ranges from 13 to 22 percent.[2,3] Many undiagnosed patients (up to 42 percent) are found, after a careful family history and examination of kin, to have a familial neuropathy.[2]
