| Abstract |
|
"The concept of chronic inflammatory axonal polyneuropathy, which is similar to chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy, has been suggested based on clinical, electrophysiological, and histopathological findings and treatment responses. We report a young male patient who presented with quadriparesis, diffuse axonal polyneuropathy on nerve conduction study and elevated cerebrospinal fluid protein. The patient showed clinical improvement with long-term corticosteroid treatment. Journal of Multiple Sclerosis and Neuroimmunology 13(1):12-15, 2022" |
