My primer for the peripheral neuropathies
Neurologists love to use the small and large fiber dichotomy --> this needs to be clarified.
See my notes --> defines types of fibers
Large fiber disease -
Motor --> A alpha fibres --> motor weakness +/- atrophy (if 1° axonal or demyelinating with 2° axonal changes)
Sensory - disease of type Ib and II fibers
Positive phenomena -->
1. Tingling
2. Cotton wool
Negative phenomena -->
1. Numbness
2. Sensory ataxia
3. Pseudoathetosis
4. Washbasin phenomenon
5. Rombergism
6. 'Shower is a Romberg machine'
Reflexes - A alpha (efferent) and 1a (afferent) limbs of stretch reflex --> loss of tonic reflexes leads to hypotonia and loss of phasic reflexes leads to areflexia
Autonomic - none
Small fiber disease -
Motor - none
Sensory - disease of A delta and C fibers --> positive phenomena is burning and negative phenomena includes numbness
Reflexes - preserved
Autonomic - disease of type B and type C fibers - both positive and negative sensory phenomena
Dictum from Dr Archith Boloor -
Large fiber neuropathy is the neuropathy of signs.
Small fiber neuropathy is the neuropathy of symptoms.
