"Glove and Stocking" Sensory Loss

"Glove and Stocking" Sensory Loss

Sensory loss, to all or selected modalities, confined to the distal parts of the limbs ("glove and stocking") implies the presence of a peripheral sensory neuropathy. If the neuropathy involves both sensory and motor fibers, motor signs (distal weakness, reflex diminution or loss) may also be present.
