Neuronopathy Clinical Trial
Official title:
Clinical, Electrophysiological and Biological Diagnostic Criteria of Sensory Neuronopathies
The diagnosis of sensory neuronopathy is difficult to establish because the only certainty criterion is based on the detection of specific lesions in the posterior spinal ganglion which is usually not possible. There is to date no clinical and electrophysiological criteria or validated biomarker for the diagnosis of this type of neuropathy. In a retrospective study, we analyzed the files of patients with peripheral sensory neuronopathy certain and established clinical and electrophysiological diagnostic criteria for sensitive neuronopathy. We therefore wish now validate these criteria and investigate possible associated antibodies on a prospective cohort of patients.
