Immune-mediated neuropathies: role of single-fiber conduction velocity.

Immune-mediated neuropathies are acquired diseases that considerably vary in their pattern of nerve involvement. Peripheral nerves may have segmental or diffuse involvement, creating great variability in the exact clinical presentation (Magy et al., 2011; Padua et al., 2013). The diagnosis is based upon clinical examination, which may demonstrate weakness and/or sensory impairment, depending on affected nerves, degree of suffering and type of involvement (Van den Bergh et al., 2010). Neurophysiology supports the diagnostic process, providing information about nerve function.
