Abstract
Summary Seven patients with neuropathy associated with vitamin B12 deficiency are reported. Four of them had other signs of malabsorption aside from the abnormal Schilling test. The neuropathy was diagnosed on the basis of the whole clinical picture and the neurophysiological findings. The pathogenesis of the peripheral nerve disease is discussed in the light of the evidence in the literature.
