Abstrakt | An morphological confirmation of neuropysiologically assessed small nerve fibre dysfunction in a patient with Sjoegren's syndrome was sought. Conventional motor and sensory nerve conduction studies were normal, while examination of the thermal specific and thermal pain sensitivity and autonomic nervous system evaluation showed striking abnormalities. Sural nerve electron microscopy showed almost normally large nerve fibres and abnormalities in unmyelinated nerve fibres or Schwann cells, and verified morphologically the neurophysiological supposed small nerve fibre involvement. | |
