Abstract:
There is an increasing number of peripheral nerve disorders with inflammatory and immune mechanisms involved. The precise diagnosis is of utmost importance, since these patients can be successfully treated. Unfortunately, there is no specific marker for any disease of this group.

In this paper we review the diagnostic criteria and treatment strategies for the major types of chronic inflammatory polyneuropathies.
