title: [Bilateral amyotrophic neuralgia (Parsonage Turner syndrome) with HIV seroconversion].
abstract: We report a unusual case of neuralgic amyotrophy (NA) occurring during the seroconversion stage of an HIV infection. Combined with previously published cases, our observation suggests that NA associated with HIV could belong to the group of early multiplex mononeuritis. Neurologists should be aware of HIV infection when managing a patient with NA.
