Abstract:
:Clinical and electrophysiological examinations were performed on 12 patients with toxic neuropathy following accidental ingestion of alcohol polluted by triorthocresyl phosphate (TOCP). Concurrent PNS and CNS lesions were found in all patients. Two to three months after ingestion, five of them showed prevalent signs of mixed, sensorimotor polyneuropathy, especially motor and distal, and the electrophysiological data pointed to the mixed process of axonal degeneration and secondary demyelination. In two of these five patients in whom examinations were repeated 13 years after TOCP ingestion, there was a marked clinical and electrophysiological improvement of signs of PNS lesions. Improvement of signs of CNS lesions was very poor even after 13 years. Signs of CNS lesions prevailed in the remaining seven patients. The clinical picture resembled that in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and the electrophysiological data suggested a neuronal and axonal degeneration. Apart from the 12 cases of TOCP neuropathy, we also studied two cases of poisoning with organophosphorus insecticides, Dipterex and Divipan, in which a pure motor form of neuropathy was found.
