A previously healthy woman developed sensory ataxia after a febrile illness, showing severe proprioception and kinesthesia loss. This case suggests an idiopathic subacute sensory neuronopathy diagnosis.

Area of Science:

  • Neurology
  • Neuroscience
  • Immunology

Background:

  • A 52-year-old woman with chronic hepatitis presented with neurological symptoms.
  • The patient experienced an acute febrile illness preceding symptom onset.

Observation:

  • Developed severe sensory ataxia, characterized by impaired proprioception and kinesthesia in the arms.
  • Neurophysiological studies revealed absent sensory potentials in the hands.
  • Initial investigations ruled out malignancy and sicca symptoms, though some Sjögren's syndrome markers were equivocal.

Findings:

  • The clinical presentation and neurophysiological findings are consistent with sensory neuronopathy.
  • A slight improvement was noted after the acute phase of the illness.

Implications:

  • This case highlights a potential association between febrile illness and the development of subacute sensory neuronopathy.
  • Further research may elucidate the underlying mechanisms and potential triggers for idiopathic sensory neuronopathies.
  • Early recognition and diagnosis are crucial for managing patients with sensory neuronopathy.
