Standardized Neurologic Evaluations of 128 Patients with Wegener Granulomatosis
Arch Neurol 58:1215-1221,1204, de Groot,K.,et al, 2001

Article Abstract
Peripheral neuropathy is frequent in generalized WG, occurring early in the disease course. As PN can be the first and sole symptom of a beginning systemic vasculitis, it is important that in cases of PN of an unclear origin, interdisciplin ary investigations are initiated to detect, treat, and closely follow-up a possible underlying WG, especially as these patients seem to have a more severe disease course.
