OBJECTIVE: The present study was intended to analyze the characteristics of myelinated nerve fibers density (MFD) of transthyretin amyloid polyneuropathy (ATTR-PN) and other similar neuropathies.
METHODS: A total of 41 patients with ATTR-PN, 58 patients of other common peripheral neuropathies, and 17 age-and gender-matched controls who visited the First Hospital of Peking University and performed sural nerve biopsy between June 2007 and August 2021 were included for analysis of MFD.
RESULTS: Except the vasculitic neuropathy group, the total and small MFD of patients in the ATTR-PN group were significantly lower than those of other disease groups. There was an obvious negative correlation between the total MFD and the disease course in the ATTR-PN group. The disease course of early-onset and late-onset symptoms was similar, but the loss of large myelinated nerve fibers (MF) was more severe for the latter. In addition, all late-onset and most early-onset patients had severely reduced MFD after a 2 years' disease course. The MFD in ATTR-PN patients was negatively correlated with Neuropathy Impairment Score (NIS) and Norfolk Quality of life-diabetic neuropathy (Norfolk QOL-DN) score.
CONCLUSION: MF is lost differently in ATTR-PN and in other common peripheral neuropathies. The late-onset and early-onset ATTR-PN patients have different patterns of loss of large and small MF.
