See this aricle in Pubmed
Article Abstract
The clinical electrophysiological and histological features of 10 cases of"chronic sensory demyelinating neuropathy"(CSDN)are reported.This entity is characterised by:1)subacute or chronic progression;2)pure sensory neuropathy;3)high spinal fluid protein in the majority of cases;4) electrophysiological evidence of demyelination affecting motor as well as sensory nerve fibres;5)demyelination on sural nerve biopsy and 6)good response to immunotherapy in progressive phase.It is believed that this entity represents chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy(CIPD) presenting as pure sensory neuropathy.
