History Of

Vasculitic neuropathy often presents as a mononeuritis multiplex pattern. Ischemic nerve injury can lead to abrupt-onset, painful, and multifocal sensorimotor neuropathy. This chapter emphasizes the diagnostic considerations of vasculitic neuropathy, which includes the significant limitations of serologic markers in non-systemic vasculitic neuropathy. Nerve and muscle biopsy are important investigations to consider to make the diagnosis. Keys to management are also reviewed. It is important to manage systemic vasculitis with a rheumatologist. Nonsystemic vasculitis has a much better prognosis; immunosuppressive treatment is less aggressive, but it is recommended to have a rheumatologist’s input. There is no conclusive evidence on how to treat nonsystemic vasculitis. Mild cases may be treated with steroids alone.

Nonsystemic Vasculitic Neuropathy

Mononeuropathy multiplex is a disorder which distinguishes itself from peripheral polyneuropathy by involvement of specific individual peripheral nerves. Mononeuropathy multiplex is often asymmetrical and is classified, based on electrophysiologic and pathologic findings, into axonal and demyelinating types. Mononeuritis multiplex is a term that is used exclusively for cases of axonal multiple mononeuropathies due to peripheral nerve vasculitis. This may be associated with connective tissue disease or hepatitis B and C infection. This case outlines the clinical and electrophysiological findings in mononeuritis multiplex and discusses the differential diagnosis of systemic and nonsystemic vasculitic neuropathy. The causes and pathological findings that characterize vasculitic neuropathy are highlighted.
