Summary: | <p>This paper aims to investigate the clinical features and treatment of patients with acutemotor axonal neuropathy (AMAN). The clinical data of 9 patients with AMAN treated in our hospital were retrospectively analyzed from prodromal infections, clinical features, neuroelectrophysiological examination, treatment and the scores of Hughes functional grading scale. Diarrhea was the most common prodromal infection, and weakness of four limbs and muscles atrophy acutely emerged. The patient's condition progressed rapidly. In these cases, therapy of immunoglobulin combined with methylprednisolone was effective. Therefore, early diagnosis and timely treating with immunoglobulin therapy are most important methods to improve the prognosis.</p><p> </p><p><strong>DOI: </strong>10.3969/j.issn.1672-6731.2015.12.014</p>
