Abstract

The prevalence of peripheral neuropathies has increased over the years, and novel treatments for management of several neuropathies have emerged over the past decade. Following a literature search of the ICHUSHI database, we observed that recent literature on peripheral neuropathy most frequently includes reports from the orthopedic specialty, followed by studies reported by the neurology service. Notably, the number of studies reported by the neurology departments has increased over the past decade. However, most patients with common peripheral neuropathies do not visit the neurology department. Therefore, it is necessary to highlight the role of neurologists for comprehensive evaluation and management of neuromuscular disorders. This may result in acknowledgement of neurology as the primary gatekeeper of peripheral neurological diseases.
