Abstract:
We describe 3 patients with severe sensorimotor neuropathy complicating rheumatoid arthritis. Two patients had evidence of vasculitis and an axonal neuropathy. These patients were unusual in that the neuropathy occurred early in the course of rheumatoid arthritis. The third patient had a demyelinating neuropathy with a high cerebrospinal fluid protein level, and is a probable example of a chronic inflammatory neuropathy occurring in rheumatoid arthritis. All patients improved or were stabilized with corticosteroid therapy.
