    This study details five cases of sensory-dominant multiple mononeuritis, a migrating nerve condition. Findings suggest vasculitis as a potential cause in patients without systemic disease.

    Area of Science:

    • Neurology
    • Pathology

    Background:

    • Migrating multiple mononeuritis can indicate various conditions.
    • Wartenberg's "migrant sensory neuritis" is a distinct form without systemic disease.
    • Angiopathy is a proposed mechanism for this neuropathy.

    Observation:

    • Five patients (4 female, 1 male, ages 26-71) presented with sensory-dominant, migrating multiple mononeuritis.
    • Patients experienced recurrent episodes of numbness or pain in distal cutaneous nerve branches, sometimes followed by sensory deficits.
    • Clinical presentation resembled Wartenberg's migrant sensory neuritis, with fewer cranial nerve involvements and episodes than previously reported.

    Findings:

    • Laboratory tests excluded underlying systemic disorders like collagen vascular disease.
    • Sural nerve biopsies revealed vasculitis in small/medium epineurial arteries and reduced large myelinated fibers.

  • Sensory action potentials were diminished or absent in examined nerves.

    • Implications:

    • Vasculitis may be a key pathological finding in sensory-dominant migrating multiple mononeuritis without systemic disease.
    • This research contributes to understanding the diverse etiologies of neuropathic conditions.
    • Further investigation into the pathomechanisms of this specific neuropathy is warranted.
