Literature review of clinical analysis of hereditary neuropathy with liability to pressure palsies.

ABSTRACT: This review summarizes the clinical and electromyography (EMG) characteristics and peripheral myelin protein 22 (PMP22) gene-related diseases of hereditary neuropathy with liability to pressure palsies (HNPP). Clinical, EMG, and laboratory data of patients diagnosed with HNPP at our institution from 2022 to 2023 were retrospectively reviewed. Relevant literature from January 2003 to June 2024 was retrieved from PubMed using the keywords "hereditary neuropathy with liability to pressure palsies" and "HNPP." Clinical manifestations, EMG characteristics, and gene detection results of HNPP were summarized. All patients exhibited transient neurological symptoms and tested positive for the PMP22 deletion. EMG revealed multiple peripheral nerve abnormalities. Sixty-eight studies meeting the inclu
