CONT

La tendance actuelle est de remplacer les termes classiques: celui de polynévrite par polyneuropathie, celui de multinévrite par mononeuropathie multiple. Il est nécessaire de définir ces termes: [...] axonopathie: la dégénérescence rétrograde affecte les fibres les plus longues et de plus gros diamètre, à partir de l'extrémité distale des membres.
