Sensory neuronopathy (SN) presents with sensory ataxia and no weakness. The site of pathology is in the dorsal root ganglia. Electrodiagnostic studies show absence of sensory nerve action potentials and preservation of motor nerve function. Elderly individuals with sensory ataxia and typical electrodiagnostic findings of SN should be evaluated for underlying carcinoma.
感觉神经元病(SN)表现为感觉性共济失调且无肌无力。病理部位在背根神经节。电诊断研究显示感觉神经动作电位缺失而运动神经功能保留。对于有感觉性共济失调且具有SN典型电诊断表现的老年人,应评估是否存在潜在癌症。
