Chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy in an adolescent with type 1 diabetes mellitus

Abstract: Chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculopathy (CIDP) is an immune-mediated disorder for which specific clinical cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), electrophysiologic and histological criteria have been proposed 1 . CIPD is an uncommon cause of childhood polyneuropathy. Descriptions of children with CIPD are scarce. Therefore, this article intends to report a case about an adolescent with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) with a satisfactory therapeutic response to immunoglobulin and methylprednisolone.This presen… Show more

“…5 Comorbidity of chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy and type 1 diabetes mellitus is extremely rare in childhood and adolescence and it was previously reported in five paediatric patients (Table 1). [1][2][3][4] The clinical presentations of the two diseases were simultaneous in two children while an atypical form with an asymmetric sensory-motor impairment was observed in our patient only (Table 1). [1][2][3][4] A high variability was observed in the best responsiveness to treatments while no clear links were reported between the neurological outcome and the degree of glycaemic control (Table 1).…”

[1][2][3][4] The dramatic response to plasma exchange of the reported patient should support this therapeutic strategy since the early stages in paediatric patients.…”

“…4 However, only SLE, MG, MS, T1D, Graves' disease and autoimmune hepatitis have been reported to be associated with CIDP in childhood. [7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15] We aim to present the first pediatric case with the coexistence of CIDP and Sjögren's syndrome.…”
