Multiple Cranial Neuropathy with and Polyradiculoneuropathy as a Delayed Sequelae after of Ethylene Glycol Intoxication / 대한임상신경생리학회지

ABSTRACT

Multiple cranial and peripheral neuropathies as a delayed sequellae of ethylene glycol poisoning is a less well known clinical entity and its information about long-term electrophysiological and clinical outcomes is limited. We report a 45-year-old male who presented with acute renal failure and subsequently developed multiple cranial neuropathy, respiratory failure, and flaccid tetraparesis. Through sequential electrophysiological studies, we would like suggest that the main pathophysiology of ethylene glycol-related neuropathy is a demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy with secondary axonal degeneration.
