A patient with bilateral neuralgic amyotrophy and hepatitis E virus infection: an educational communication

Neuralgic Amyotrophy, a peripheral nervous system disorder, is characterized by severe pain and muscle weakness, which can have a significant impact on patients' quality of life. The exact cause of neuralgic amyotrophy is unknown, but it may be linked to immunopathological mechanisms. Recent research has found an association between neuralgic amyotrophy and hepatitis E virus infection. This communication aims to expand knowledge on the clinical phenotype of patients with neuralgic amyotrophy and hepatitis E virus infection, presenting the case of a 55-year-old man diagnosed with bilateral neuralgic amyotrophy and hepatitis E virus infection.
