title: [Systematic classification of the disorders of the peripheral nervous system].
abstract: Classification of disorders in the peripheral nervous system has been a controversially disputed subject. A brief account, therefore, is given of basic definitions and main groups of mononeuropathies and polyneuropathies. The most common types of mononeuropathies as well as hereditary and acquired polyneuropathies are listed in four tables. Particular attention is given to toxic neuropathies.
