title: [The clinical picture and treatment of chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy].
abstract: A study was made of the clinical and electrophysiological data on 33 patients. In all the patients, motor disorders played the leading part. 18 patients manifested distal tetraparesis, 7 diffuse, 3 tetraplegia, and 5 had multiple mononeuropathy. The progressive, recurrent and monophasic types of the disease course were distinguished. The electrophysiological study revealed pathology primarily in muscles of the distal parts of the limbs and local areas of the blocking of excitation conduction in different nerves. The prognosis and treatment of the patients with glucocorticoids, cytostatics and plasmapheresis are under discussion. The catamnesis is 5 years.
