๐Overview
Multifocal Motor Neuropathy (MMN) is a rare, immune-mediated neuropathy characterized by progressive, asymmetric weakness of muscles without sensory loss. It is considered a distinct clinical entity from other motor neuropathies and is classified under immune-mediated neuropathies. MMN primarily affects motor nerves in multiple discrete areas, leading to muscle weakness and atrophy. It is important to differentiate MMN from conditions like amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP).
