Abstract
This review explores diverse infectious etiologies of peripheral nervous system (PNS) dysfunction, spanning sensory and motor neurons, nerves, and associated structures. Progress in viral and bacterial infections reveals multifaceted mechanisms underlying neuropathies, including viral neurotoxicity and immune-mediated responses. Latest diagnostic advances facilitate early PNS complication detection, with ongoing research offering promising treatment avenues. Emerging pathogens like severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2, Zika virus, and EV-D68 highlight the evolving infectious neuropathy paradigm. Recognizing characteristic patterns and integrating clinical factors are pivotal for precise diagnosis and tailored intervention. Challenges persist in assessment and management due to varied pathogenic mechanisms. Advancements in understanding pathogenesis have improved targeted therapies, yet gaps remain in effective treatments. Ongoing research is crucial for optimizing approaches and improving patient outcomes.
