title: [Axonal polyneuropathy caused by acute multiple organ disease].
abstract: Complications involving the peripheral nervous system known as CIP have been reported during the course of prolonged sepsis and MOFS. These may be differentiated from Guillain-Barré's syndrome by their electrophysiological characteristics of axonal neuronal damage and the normality of spinal fluid tests. The Authors report and discuss a case which was brought to their attention.
