    Acute inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy in a diabetic patient: Predominance of vesicular disruption in myelin sheaths (1985)

    Notes: Summary A diabetic woman underwent an incision of the right big toe for an abscess and developed a typical Guillain-Barré syndrome 48 h later. A biopsy of a peripheral nerve, performed 10 days later, showed modifications usually seen in diabetic patients, as well as the characteristic ultrastructural modifications of the Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS). Moreover, 22% of myelinated fibers exhibited vesicular disruption of the myelin sheaths. This lesion is rarely encountered on the biopsies of peripheral nerve in GBS and concerns only a few myelinated fibers. Such a prominence of myelinic vesicular disruption and its occurrence in a diabetic patient are discussed.

    Variability of morphological features in early infantile polyneuropathy with defective myelination (1987)

    Notes: Summary Four cases of early infantile polyneuropathy with defective myelination are reported. The peripheral nerve was studied by light and electron microscopy; different morphological characteristics have been noticed in these patients. Case 1 presented aspects of defective myelination with atypical “onion bulb” formation composed of multiple layers of basement membrane. In case 2, defective myelination and atypical “onion bulb” formation were associated with aberrant hypermyelination. Cases 3 and 4 were brothers, who presented axonal damage and atypical “onion bulb” formation.

    Polyarteritis nodosa and peripheral neuropathy (1985)
    Springer
    Acta neuropathologica 67 (1985), S. 136-141

    Notes: Summary Peripheral nerves from 13 patients suffering from polyarteritis nodosa with multiple mononeuropathy were studied by light and electron microscopy. In the majority of cases, the vascular lesions were associated with Wallerian-like degeneration. Myelinated fibers presenting a normal axon with a disproportionately thin myelin sheath were less numerous. Unusual abnormalities consisted of swollen axons with an accumulation of organelles. Unmyelinated fibers were also damaged. A quantitative estimation of myelinated fibers loss did not show any selective vulnerability of either the large or the small diameter group.
