Akut, autoimmun nervinflammation orsakad av ett T-cellförmedlat, cellulärt immunsvar riktat mot myelin i perifera nerver och nervrötter. Sjukdomsförloppet föregås ofta av en virus- eller bakterieinfektion, kirurgiskt ingrepp, immunisering, lymfom eller exponering för giftiga ämnen. Vanliga kliniska tecken är tilltagande trötthet, känselbortfall och förlust av djupa senreflexer. Även försvagning av andningsmuskulaturen och bristande autonom funktion kan förekomma.
An acute inflammatory autoimmune neuritis caused by T cell- mediated cellular immune response directed towards peripheral myelin. Demyelination occurs in peripheral nerves and nerve roots. The process is often preceded by a viral or bacterial infection, surgery, immunization, lymphoma, or exposure to toxins. Common clinical manifestations include progressive weakness, loss of sensation, and loss of deep tendon reflexes. Weakness of respiratory muscles and autonomic dysfunction may occur.
