ABSTRACT
Twenty patients with vasculitic neuropathy were analyzed. Sixteen of the twenty presented with classic mononeuritis multiplex but four had distal, symmetrical, sensorimotor polyneuropathy. Though vasculitic neuropathy is classically associated with Collagen vascular syndromes like, polyarteritis nodosa, rheumatoid arthritis and systemic lupus erythematosis, only 13/20 of our patients had definitive Collagen vascular disease. A large proportion (7/20) had vasculitic neuropathy as the only clinical feature.
