Overview
Peripheral neuropathy may be classified according to the number and distribution of nerves affected into three groups: Mononeuropathy, Mononeuritis multiplex and Polyneuropathy.It may also be classified according to the type of nerve fiber predominantly affected into three groups: Motor, sensory and Autonomic. peripheral neuropathy may also be classified according to the process affecting the nerves into three groups: Inflammatory neuritis, compression neuropathy andchemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy.
