This podcast discusses information from the article "Vasculitic Neuropathies" in Lancet Neurology.  The vasculitic neuropathies are a diverse group of disorders characterized by the acute-to-subacute onset of painful sensory and motor deficits that result from inflammatory destruction of nerve blood vessels and subsequent ischaemic injury. They are common in patients with primary systemic vasculitis and are seen in vasculitis secondary to disorders such as rheumatoid arthritis, viral infections, and diabetic inflammatory neuropathies. It is imperative that neurologists recognize these disorders to initiate treatment promptly and thereby prevent morbidity and mortality.  Lancet Neurol. 2014 Jan;13(1):67-82. doi: 10.1016/S1474-4422(13)70236-9.
