| Description |
AIDP is the most frequent etiology for an acute polyneuropathy that rapidly evolves to a potentially fatal form; however, other types of acute polyneuopathy and CNS lesions must be eliminated to confirm the diagnosis. Laboratory features generally inconsistent with AIDP are: (a) more than 50 monocytes/mm3 in the CSF; (b) the presence of polymorphonuclear leukocytes in the CSF; and (c) normal nerve conduction and late-response studies. |
