Whats demyelination disorder?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Loss of nerve cover: Myelin acts as an insulation and covers nerves both in central and peripheral nervous systems, and the above term implies loss of myelin. This is often a description of multiple sclerosis, but is seen in the periphery in guillain-barre syndrome and chronic demyelinating immune neuropathies.
