Myelinated nerve biopsy

The syndrome of IgMk paraproteinemia and sensory ataxia is usually encountered in elderly men. Nerve biopsy in these patients shows focal abnormalities in compaction of PNS myelin lamellae, and their IgM paraprotein recognizes epitopes of myelin-associated glycoprotein (MAG) and sulfate-3-glucuronyl paragloboside [24,42]. [Pg.623]

Nervous system dysfunction beyond neuro-ophthafinolog-ical aspects is common in hypothyroidism. Electrophysiological abnormafities reported include sensorimotor axonal polyneuropathy, carpal tunnel syndrome and myopathy (Neeck et al.y 1990 Palumbo et ai, 2000 Duyff et ai, 2000). Sural nerve biopsies have previously showed reduction of myelinated fibers and degenerative changes in axons of all fiber classes with incomplete regeneration (Meier and Bischoff,... [Pg.1106]
