Unusual presentation of hereditary neuropathy with liability to pressure palsies.

Background: Hereditary neuropathy with liability to pressure palsies (HNPP) is an autosomal-dominant painless peripheral neuropathy characterized by episodes of repeated focal pressure neuropathies at sites of entrapment/compression, with a considerable variability in the clinical course. Electrodiagnostic and genetic testing are important in the diagnostic evaluation of these patients.

Case Presentation: We report an unusual HNPP phenotype, five compression neuropathies in four nerves in a patient with bilateral hand numbness.
