DISCUSSION

It is one interesting case. The patient has multiple symptoms of toxicity of dexametazone: swelling of face, hypertension, myalgia and neuritis . (1)

The ultrastructural alterations is inespecifics through toxic damage for drugs through treatment with chemotherapy to the cancer. (2)

The image onion bulb figures into layers for onion into separation than its cellular membranes and decrease on phospholipids for the cellular membrane are suggestive for the peripheral neuropaty secondary desmielinizanteing probably at the dexametazone.

Our case had a polineuropathy associated with dexametasone durg. I dont know if this neuropathy is an idiosyncratic reaction or immune - mediated alteration and occured after years of treatment. The patient was health after eliminated the dexametasone drug.

In our case was secundary neuropathy with specific damage in myelin with alteration of swelling membranes, onion bulb figures and finger print dactilars image.

This is the first case demostrated with ultrastructure of neuropathy for dexametasone.
