Abstract
A 51-year-old woman consulted the department of neurology with a 5 month-history of progressive numbness and tingling in a glove and stocking distribution. The problems started in both feet, resulting in unsteadiness and difficulty walking. Motor weakness and impairment of sensation of fine touch were also noticed.
