Peripheral neuropathy (PN) is one of the most common side effects of bortezomib therapy. The majority of bortezomib-related PN is a sensory neuropathy of mild to moderate degree, and is reversible after dose reduction or discontinuation. However, occasionally bortezomib-induced neuropathy can be severe and affects motor and/or autonomic nerves, and may be mediated by immune process. The role of immune modulation therapy in the management of bortezomib-induced PN was not well established. Here, we reported a case of bortezomib-induced severe PN that responded well to plasma exchange and steroid treatment.
周围神经病变(PN)是硼替佐米治疗最常见的副作用之一。大多数硼替佐米相关的 PN 是轻度至中度感觉性神经病,在减少剂量或停药后可逆转。然而,硼替佐米诱导的神经病偶尔也可能很严重,影响运动和/或自主神经,并且可能由免疫过程介导。免疫调节治疗在硼替佐米诱导的 PN 中的作用尚未得到充分证实。在这里,我们报告了一例硼替佐米诱导的严重 PN,该病例对血浆置换和类固醇治疗反应良好。
