A young man with subacute neuronopathy following tetracycline treatment is described. The symptoms started as a sensory dorsal root affection but by time also involved motor nerves. He developed a severe sensory ataxia with pseudoathetotic movements. Other possible aetiologies were scrutinized and excluded. Tetracycline induced neuronopathy is hitherto not reported in the literature. We propose a possible association between treatment with tetracycline and the development of sensory neuronopathy in this patient.
本文描述了一名四环素治疗后出现亚急性神经病的年轻男性。症状起初表现为感觉性背根神经受累，但随着时间推移也累及运动神经。他出现了伴有假手足徐动症的严重感觉性共济失调。对其他可能的病因进行了仔细检查并排除。四环素诱发的神经病迄今在文献中尚无报道。我们提出该患者四环素治疗与感觉神经病的发生之间可能存在关联。
