Objective: To report two cases of an axonal motor polyradiculoneuropathy associated with human immunodeficiency virus infection in otherwise asymptomatic subjects.
Design: Case series.
Setting: Tertiary care hospital neurology inpatient service.
Results: Electrophysiologic testing showed acute denervation with almost normal sensory potentials and no evidence of demyelination.
Conclusions: These cases present an example of an acute axonal polyradiculoneuropathy in persons infected with human immunodeficiency virus without acquired immunodeficiency syndrome.
