Scope note: Trastornos del sistema nervioso periférico asociados con depósito de AMILOIDE en el tejido nervioso. Se han descrito las formas familiar, primaria (no familiar) y secundaria. Algunos subtipos familiares demuestran un patrón hereditario autosómico dominante. Las manifestaciones clínicas incluyen pérdida de sensibilidad, debilidad leve, disfunción neurovegetativa y SÍNDROME DEL TÚNEL CARPIANO. (Adams et al., Principles of Neurology, 6th ed,p1349)

Scope note: Disorders of the peripheral nervous system associated with the deposition of AMYLOID in nerve tissue. Familial, primary (nonfamilial), and secondary forms have been described. Some familial subtypes demonstrate an autosomal dominant pattern of inheritance. Clinical manifestations include sensory loss, mild weakness, autonomic dysfunction, and CARPAL TUNNEL SYNDROME.
