Entry term(s) neuropatía periférica inducida por alcohol
polineuropatía alcohólica
Scope note: Afección en la que el daño en el sistema nervioso periérico (incluidos los elementos periféricos del sistema nervioso autónomo) se asocia con ingestión crónica de bebidas alcohólicas. El trastorno puede estar causado por un efecto directo del alcohol, una deficiencia nutricional asociada o una combinación de factores. Las manifestaciones clínicas incluyen una variedad de grados de debilidad, ATROFIA, PARESTESIAS, dolor, pérdida de reflejos, pérdida de sensibilidad, diaforesis e hipotensión postural.

Scope note: A condition where damage to the peripheral nervous system (including the peripheral elements of the autonomic nervous system) is associated with chronic ingestion of alcoholic beverages. The disorder may be caused by a direct effect of alcohol, an associated nutritional deficiency, or a combination of factors. Clinical manifestations include variable degrees of weakness; ATROPHY; PARESTHESIAS; pain; loss of reflexes; sensory loss; diaphoresis; and postural hypotension. (From Arch Neurol 1995;52(1):45-51; Adams et al., Principles of Neurology, 6th ed, p1146)
