Comparison of nerve conduction studies with diabetic neuropathy symptom score and diabetic neuropathy examination score in type-2 diabetics for detection of sensorimotor polyneuropathy.

30 Aug 2009 OBJECTIVE: To compare the nerve conduction studies in clinically undetectable and detectable sensorimotor polyneuropathy in type 2 diabetics. METHODS: Diagnosed diabetics (n = 60) were divided in two groups. Group 1 (n1 = 30) with clinically ... Read more...

Atypical deep peroneal neuropathy in the setting of an accessory deep peroneal nerve.

30 Jul 2009 We report a case of deep peroneal neuropathy resulting in foot drop with preserved toe extension. These unexpected findings were the result of the presence of an accessory deep peroneal nerve that provided total innervation of the extensor digitorum ... Read more...

Predicting recovery after fibular nerve injury: which electrodiagnostic features are most useful?

29 Jun 2009 OBJECTIVE: Although it is important to have strong predictors of outcome in peripheral mononeuropathies so that appropriate management can be instituted early, little is known about the prognostic value of electrodiagnostic results for these ... Read more...
