| Description |
Chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy (CIDP) is an acquired, immune-mediated, and clinically heterogeneous disease affecting the nerve roots and peripheral nerves. CIDP classically presents with gradually progressive and often proximal limb weakness and numbness accompanied by areflexia, elevated cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) protein without pleocytosis, and electrodiagnostic or pathologic evidence of demyelination. We report three cases where vision loss was an early and prominent symptom in new onset CIDP: two cases of papilledema, and one case of optic neuropathy. |
