Critical illness poly-neuropathy following severe hyperpyrexia.

P T Wilmshurst1, D F Treacher, P L Lantos, C M Wiles.   

Abstract

Two patients developed critical illness polyneuropathy after severe hyperpyrexia. Fever was secondary to a phaeochromocytoma in one patient and sepsis in the other. These observations suggest that high fever may be one possible aetiology of critical illness polyneuropathy.
