摘要
We report a 35-year-old man who developed weakness in his extremities five months after pegylated interferon alpha (IFN alpha)-2b was administered. The serum tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF alpha) was elevated and nerve conduction studies revealed demyelination both in the distal and intermediate segments. The sural nerve pathology showed mild demyelinating process. The cessation of IFN alpha and administration of intravenous immunoglobulin improved both his clinical symptoms and the temporal dispersion in motor nerve conduction study. IFN alpha-induced CIDP is presumably a transient immunological condition that requires immunomodulatory therapy. The elevated serum TNFa may implicate the degree of downstream autoimmunitiy induced by IFN alpha.
