Clinical electrophysiology of axonal polyneuropathies
2019, Handbook of Clinical NeurologyCitation Excerpt :With respect to timing of electrodiagnostic studies in evaluating axonal injury, the previously mentioned phenomena are of clinical relevance. In severe acute axonal injury, nerve conduction in segments distal from the axonal injury will remain intact for up to several days, referable to the latent phase of Wallerian degeneration (van der Meche et al., 1991; Feasby et al., 1993; Capasso et al., 2003; Uncini and Kuwabara, 2012). Within days, SNAP and CMAP amplitudes diminish in a retrograde or “dying-back” pattern.
Guillain-Barré syndrome
2016, The LancetCitation Excerpt :The advance in understanding that changed this viewpoint was the appreciation that distinct, clinical-pathological phenotypes could be delineated within the Guillain-Barré syndrome spectrum, the main phenotypes of which are termed acute inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy and acute motor axonal neuropathy (figure 2). Although this distinction of Guillain-Barré syndrome phenotypes does not negate the idea of bystander axonal injury, it does clarify the point that axons themselves can be the primary target for autoimmune injury, rather than being injured as a secondary phenomenon.37 Clinical variants such as Miller Fisher syndrome are now classified within the Guillain-Barré syndrome family of disorders.
