However, to avoid misdiagnosis, rare immune-mediated neuropathy such as chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy (CIDP) should not be overlooked. This report presents a case of multilevel nerve root hypertrophy leading to significant cord compression from CIDP.<\/jats:p>\n<\/jats:sec>\n<jats:sec id=\"st2\">\n<jats:title>Case Description: <\/jats:title>\n<jats:p>We report a 56-year-old gentleman with type two diabetes mellitus who presented with subacute cervical cord syndrome following a fall. Mixed upper and lower motor neuron features were noted on examination. Magnetic resonance imaging showed significant pan-spinal proximal nerve root hypertrophy, compressing the cervical spinal cord. Initial radiological opinion raised the possibility of neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF-1), but neurophysiology revealed both axonal and demyelinating changes that were etiologically non-specific. C6 root and sural nerve biopsies taken at cervical decompression displayed striking features suggestive for CIDP. Although NF-1 is the most observed condition associated with root hypertrophy, other important and potentially treatable differentials need to be entertained.<\/jats:p>\n<\/jats:sec>\n<jats:sec id=\"st3\">\n<jats:title>Conclusion: <\/jats:title>\n<jats:p>While rare, CIDP can cause significant spinal cord compression. Furthermore, clinical manifestations of CIDP can mimic those of inherited peripheral neuropathies. Neurologists and neurosurgeons should be aware of this condition to optimize subsequent therapeutic decision-making.<\/jats:p>\n<\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.25259\/sni_35_2021","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,3,24]],"date-time":"2021-03-24T06:16:38Z","timestamp":1616566598000},"page":"114","update-policy":"http:\/\/dx.doi.org\/10.25259\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Spinal cord compression from hypertrophic nerve roots in chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy \u2013 A case report"],"prefix":"10.25259","volume":"12","author":[{"given":"Md Tanvir","family":"Hasan","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurosurgery, Salford Royal NHS Foundation Trust, Greater Manchester, United Kingdom."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Subodh","family":"Patil","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurosurgery, Salford Royal NHS Foundation Trust, Greater Manchester, United Kingdom."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Vanisha","family":"Chauhan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurology, Salford Royal NHS Foundation Trust, Greater Manchester, United Kingdom."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"David","family":"Gosal","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurology, Salford Royal NHS Foundation Trust, Greater Manchester, United Kingdom."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"John","family":"Ealing","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurology, Manchester Centre for Genomic Medicine, St Mary\u2019s Hospital, Greater Manchester, United Kingdom."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Daniel","family":"Du Plessis","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Cellular Pathology, Salford Royal NHS Foundation Trust, Greater Manchester, United Kingdom."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Calvin","family":"Soh","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Radiology, Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust, Greater Manchester, United Kingdom."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"K.
