Аннотация
Chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy is one of the immune-mediated polyneuropathies responsive to immunotherapy. Its usual clinical presentation is a chronic course of symmetric sensorimotor affectation of both proximal and distal extremities with signs of demyelination on electrophysiologic studies. Cranial nerve signs in this condition is not commonly encountered, particularly involvement of the hypoglossal nerve. To date, there are only three published cases of hypoglossal involvement in this condition. This case report presents a patient with tongue fasciculation, which is an uncommon finding in chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy. This paper highlights the importance of considering chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy in the differential diagnoses of a patient with tongue fasciculation as it has been found to be responsive to immunotherapy in comparison to other lower motor neuron syndromes.
