Summary
This study highlights an axonal motor polyradiculoneuropathy in two asymptomatic individuals with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. This condition shows acute nerve damage without demyelination, even in early HIV stages.
Area of Science:
- Neurology
- Infectious Diseases
- Clinical Case Studies
Background:
- Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection can manifest with various neurological complications.
- Asymptomatic HIV infection typically does not present with significant neurological deficits.
