3) Identify / exclude “mimicking” disorders

CMT 1a

When to Consider Genetic Testing $ $

AAN Practice Parameter

Useful for patients who exhibit a classic hereditary

neuropathy phenotype.

(+ Family History, Early onset, Demyelinating)

Insufficient evidence in cryptogenic PN without

hereditary phenotype.

Amyloid

Sarcoid

Leprosy

CMT 1, 3

Micrometastases

When to order? Subacute

Severe

Rapidly progressive

Treatment

1. Treat the medical disorder (DM, nutritional

deficiency, etc.)

2. Remove offending agent (EtOH, medications, etc.)

3. If immune-mediated (CIDP, MMN, vasculitis): immune

modulating Rx (IVIg, prednisone, immunosuppressants)

4. Symptomatic treatment

Neuropathic pain

Take Home Points

• Define anatomic distribution and fiber type involvement

• EMG to determine axonal vs demyelinating

• Red flags (“HAMP”er) • Hands, Asymmetric, Motor, Proximal

• Adequate dose and 4-6 week trial of neuropathic pain medications
