Review: Current Diagnosis, Treatment and Management of Chronic Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyradiculoneuropathy
Journal Title: Annual Research & Review in Biology - Year 2017, Vol 15, Issue 1
Abstract
Polyradiculoneuropathy is a complex neuromuscular condition which has its etiology either acquired or inherited form. There are a number of neuromuscular conditions that can affect combinations of nerve root, junction, and peripheral nerve. Chronic demyelinating Polyradiculoneuropathy remains an important cause of radiculopathy in children and adults. There have been few studies involving the clinical management and diagnosis of this condition primarily as a result of its rare nature and difficulty in diagnosing, particularly at the onset of the disease. Failure to properly diagnose this condition can result in a prolonged and often protracted recovery process, which can limit a full recovery and lead to a severe functional disability. This review aims to provide proper diagnosis, treatment and management of chronic inflammatory polyradiculoneuropathy.
