Neuro-inflammatory disorders

Neuromuscular diseases form a large group of rather rare pathologies. The most frequent of these include the following:

• Guillain-Barré syndrome
• Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS)
• Duchenne muscular dystrophy
• Steinert’s disease
• Myasthenia Gravis
• Inclusion Body Myositis
• etc.

The cause may be genetic, toxic, degenerative or inflammatory. These disorders are usually chronic and involve serious impairments.

What does the Neurology service offer?

• Diagnosis

We can do various examinations to reach a diagnosis:

• Electrophysiological examination: ENMG
• Genetic examination
• A muscle or nerve biopsy

• Treatment and follow-up

Depending on the type of neuromuscular disease, it may or may not be possible to prescribe a course of treatment or take supportive measures.
