Autonomic dysfunction in polyneuropathies: a report on 106 cases

A Krone et al. J Neurol. 1983.

Abstract

Autonomic dysfunction is a common feature in various forms of polyradiculoneuropathy. This study investigated the kinds and frequency of of autonomic dysfunction in 106 cases. Denervation insufficiency of organs associated with supersensitivity of reflex mechanisms was found to be the best explanation of the pathophysiology. Early insertion of a transient cardiac pacemaker is recommended to counteract life-threatening cardiac failure.
