A giant axonal neuropathy is described in an adult with no evidence of a childhood onset of his disease and no history of exposure to toxic hydrocarbons. A causal relation to vitamin B12 malabsorption is proposed. This case suggests the need to expand the spectrum of diagnoses that must be considered when giant axons are encountered in peripheral nerve biopsy specimens.
本文描述了一例成年巨轴索神经病患者，其无儿童期起病证据，也无接触有毒碳氢化合物的病史。文中提出该病与维生素B12吸收不良存在因果关系。该病例提示，当在周围神经活检标本中发现巨轴索时，有必要扩大需考虑的诊断范围。
