Dorsal root ganglia hypertrophy as in vivo correlate of oxaliplatin-induced polyneuropathy

Abstract

OXA-PNP manifests with morphological and functional correlates that can be detected in vivo by MRN. We report hypertrophy of the DRG that stands in contrast to experimental and postmortem studies. DRG volume should be further investigated as a biomarker in other sensory peripheral neuropathies and ganglionopathies.
