The pathogenesis of cryoglobulinemic neuropathy

David Chad, M.D., F.R.C.P. (C), Ken Pariser, M.D., Walter G. Bradley, D.M., F.R.C.P., Lester S. Adelman, M.D. and Vivian W. Pinn, M.D.

Departments of Neurology (Drs. Chad, Bradley, and Adelman), Medicine (Dr. Pariser), and Pathology (Drs. Adelman and Pinn), Tufts New England Medical Center, Boston, MA.

We describe a woman with vasculitic neuropathy and essential mixed cryoglobulinemia. Immunologically mediated demyelination and nerve ischemia, the latter either a result of vasa nervorum obstruction by cryoglobulins or secondary to vasa nervorum vasculitis, are the mechanisms most often associated with this neuropathy.
