Peripheral nerve complications of medical disease.
Seminars in Neurology 2009 April
Neuropathies are associated with several systemic diseases. This article provides a general overview of the clinical presentation and management of the various neuropathies associated with common medical illnesses. The term "neuropathy" is used relatively broadly to encompass pathology from the level of the cell body to the terminal axon. Peripheral nerve disorders associated with diabetes, thyroid disease, connective tissue disease, cancer, and infection are discussed. The relationship between the various neuropathies and systemic illness is important to recognize because neuropathy may be the initial presentation of one of these underlying medical conditions. Alternatively, the presence of a known associated medical condition in a patient presenting with neuropathy may affect management decisions and limit unnecessary investigations.
