Peripheral neuropathy may be classified according to the number and distribution of nerves affected (mononeuropathy, mononeuritis multiplex, or polyneuropathy), the type of nerve fiber predominantly affected (motor, sensory, autonomic), or the process affecting the nerves; e.g., inflammation (), compression (compression neuropathy), chemotherapy (chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy).
Cerebellar ataxia with neuropathy and vestibular areflexia syndrome (CANVAS) is an autosomal recessive late-onset heredodegenerative multisystem neurological disease. The symptoms include poor balance and difficulty walking. Chronic cough and difficulty swallowing may also be present.
Symptoms of sensory neuropathy may sometimes precede the cancer diagnosis by several months. Immune mediated sensory neuronopathy is commonly associated with Sjogrens syndrome. [5] Sjogren's is most commonly affected by a length dependent axonal sensorimotor neuropathy characterized by symptoms in the extremities.
Additionally, BP control in those with diabetes is helpful, while intravenous immunoglobulin is used for multifocal motor neuropathy. [ 1 ] According to Lopate, et al., methylprednisolone is a viable treatment for chronic inflammatory demyelinative polyneuropathy (which can also be treated with intravenous immunoglobulin).

Certain forms of neuropathic pain are associated with lesions to the central nervous system such as thalamic pain associated with certain lesions (for instance strokes) to the thalamus [81] whereas other forms of pain have a peripheral inciting injury such as traumatic neuropathies. [10] The inciting cause of neuropathy has important ...
Vasculitic neuropathy is a peripheral neuropathic disease. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ] In a vasculitic neuropathy there is damage to the vessels that supply blood to the nerves . [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ] It can be as part of a systemic problem or can exist as a single-organ issue only affecting the peripheral nervous system (PNS).
This is a list of major and frequently observed neurological disorders (e.g., Alzheimer's disease), symptoms (e.g., back pain), signs (e.g., aphasia) and syndromes (e ...
