Abstract
We have described the occurrence of Morvan syndrome (MoS) after scrotal tap and injection of sclerosing agent for the treatment of hydrocele in 5 male. The mean age was 43.2 years, and the gap between the procedure and development of clinical features suggestive of MoS was 1.5-3 months. The neurophysiology studies demonstrated hyper excitability of peripheral nerves. In addition, autonomic dysfunction, severe insomnia, and neuropsychiatric features were observed. Significant VGKC-complex/CASPR-2 antibodies titer were present in all cases. Symptoms resolved spontaneously within 6 months of onset.Entities:
