CHRONIC INFLAMMATORY DEMYELINATING POLYNEUROPATHY

An uncommon, acquired, demyelinating sensorimotor polyneuropathy, clinically characterised by insidious onset, and slow evolution, (either steady progression or stepwise), and chronic rate; symmetrical weakness is a predominant symptom, often inclusion proximal leg muscles, accompanied by paresthesias, but not pain; CSF inspection shows elevated protein, while electrodiagnostic research reveal evidence of a demyelinating process, primarily conduction slowing rather than block; sometimes responds to prednisone.
