title: [Alcohol-induced lesions of the nerve and muscle].
abstract: A review is given on the most important neurologic sequelae after long lasting abuse of alcohol. The paper especially deals with the clinical features of neuropathic and myopathic disorders in alcoholics. Electromyography (including electroneurography) is considered to be a major diagnostic aid in these conditions.
