Chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP) is a chronic recurrent acquired immune-mediated disease of the peripheral nerves that presents with progressive sensory and motor deficits in all four limbs. Cranial nerve involvement is not as common as in Guillain-Barre syndrome, and central nervous system involvement including optic neuritis has rarely been reported in patients with CIDP. We recently experienced a case with classic CIDP involving bilateral facial and trigeminal nerves, right lower cranial nerves, and the right optic nerve.

By definition, the time to reach nadir in Guillain-Barre syndrome (GBS) is within four weeks. This is in contrast to the chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy (CIDP), which progress for at least two months. However, CIDP can take a relapsing and remitting form and could mimic treatment related fluctuations of GBS (GBS-TRFs) especially during the early phase of disease. We report a patient with CIDP who initially presented with a rapidly progressive limb weakness mimicking GBS, but finally showed good recovery after long term corticosteroid therapy.

An infection is less likely to elicit chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP) than Guillain-$Barr{\acute{e}}$ syndrome. We here report a case of acute-onset CIDP following hepatitis A virus infection and briefly comment on the potential mechanisms regarding the induction and chronicity of autoimmunity after a viral infection.

Polyneuropathy that is associated with monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS) similar to chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP) has been reported before, whereas a connection to acute inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (AIDP) has not been. A 52 year-old man was presented with ascending paralysis beginning 1 day ago. Neurological examinations showed facial diplegia and decreased motor power and deep tendon reflexes in all extremities. On electrophysiologic study, sensorimotor polyneuropathy was observed. Protein-and immunoelectrophoresis revealed IgA $\lambda$ monoclonal gammopathy. High dose steroid therapy was given and the symptoms improved slightly.

Distal acquired demyelinating symmetric (DADS) neuropathy is a variant form of chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy. A 54-year-old man presented with gait disturbance owing to weakness in both legs. Nerve conduction studies showed demyelinating sensorimotor polyneuropathy, and laboratory studies demonstrated anti-GM1 and anti-GD1b IgG antibodies, but no anti-myelin associated glycoprotein activity. We suggest that an antiganglioside antibodies assay needs to be applied when DADS neuropathy is suspected in order to improve the classification of dysimmune neuropathies.

선천성 유전질환인 CMT와 후천성 면역 매개 질환인 CIDP는 임상적 증상이 유사하므로 두 질환의 감별진단을 위해서는 말초신경의 전기생리학적 특징을 비교하는 것이 도움이 될 수 있다. 본 연구는 CIDP와 CMT 1형으로 확진된 환자의 신경전도검사 결과 중 감각신경전도검사의 주요 지표별 결과를 후향적으로 정량분석하여 두 질환군의 전기생리학적 특징을 규명하고자 하였다. CIDP (N=35)와 CMT1 (N=30)로 확진된 환자의 dCNAP와 SNCV를 이용하여 두 질환군의 중증도 분석, 유의성 검정, 비정상 범위별 비율분석 및 상관분석을 실시하여 통계적 차이를 기반으로 특징을 비교하였다. 두 질환 모두 전신성 말초신경다발신경병증의 특징이 관찰되었고, 장딴지신경의 손상이 가장 심한 것으로 확인되었다. CMT1군은 탈수초성 및 축삭성 신경병증을 동반하는 전신성 신경병증이고, CIDP보다 더 중증의 신경병증임이 확인되었다. 또한, 상관계수 및 산점도 분석에서 CMT1은 신경 손상 범위가 전체 신경에서 균등한 전기생리학적 특징이 관찰되었다. 감각신경전도검사의 결과를 기반으로한 본 연구결과가 CIDP와 CMT 1형의 감별진단 및 연구에 도움이 될 것으로 사료된다.
