摘要: Peripheral neuropathy is an important factor of disability in the elderly, which significant now that up to 20% population older than 60 years industrialized countries. Potentially treatable neuropathies including primary inflammatory polyneuropathies and systemic disorders, especially vasculitic neuropathies, are as common this age group younger patients.
