Medicinal polyneuropathies
Polyneuropathies that develop with prolonged use of sulfanilamide drugs are due to their inhibitory effect on the activity of a number of enzymatic systems, leading to chronic hypoxia in both the nerve trunks and the tissues they innervate . Especially often polyneuropathies occur with

Botulinum polyneuropathy
Botulinum polyneuropathy is also characterized by damage to motor functions, however, the site of the toxic effect is not the nerve trunks, but the areas of their endings. The specificity of this type of polyneuropathy is that it is not
Vaccine anti-rabies polyneuropathies
These complications are caused by an allergic reaction to the myelin of the brain tissue contained in the vaccine. Pathologically developing complication is regarded as disseminated, sometimes diffuse, encephalomyelitis and polyneuritis with a slight meningeal reaction. Mostly gray matter suffers. In
