Aortic aneurysm itself is not directly known to cause peripheral neuropathy. However, if the aneurysm compresses nearby structures or if it leads to complications such as decreased blood flow or embolism, it may indirectly contribute to nerve damage. Additionally, underlying conditions that predispose individuals to aortic aneurysms, such as vascular diseases or Diabetes, could also be associated with peripheral neuropathy. Thus, while there is no direct causative link, indirect effects may occur in certain cases.
Yes. It can cause the peripheral neuropathy.
yes
no
The official cause was listed as "...an abdominal aortic aneurysm..."
An aortic aneurysm can cause this.
Abdominal aortic aneurysm which is an aneurysm of the abdominal aorta associated with old age and hypertension
Neuropathy is an umbrella term for a host of diseases of the nervous system that have to do with the dysfunction of peripheral and cranial nerves. If it is used as a general term for dysfunctions of the central and peripheral nervous systems, then neuropathy does not cause seizures, but is descriptive of the dysfunction of the system that can result in seizures.
There are many causes, ranging from local causes such as blunt or penetrating trauma, repetitive trauma, and peripheral nerve sheath tumors, as well as local conditions such as osteochondroma's, varices and aneurysm's, etc. Systemic diseases may also cause peripheral neurpathy (e.g. diabetes mellitus). Vitamin deficiency, some poisons, and a host of other causes may be implicated.
Peripheral neuropathy is primarily caused by diabetes or prolonged high blood sugar. It can also be genetic or triggered by an auto-immune disease however those with diabetes are at a significantly higher risk than the average population for developing peripheral neuropathy.
Peripheral neuropathy primarily affects the peripheral nerves, which can lead to symptoms like numbness, tingling, and pain in the limbs. While it doesn't directly impact eyesight, certain underlying conditions that cause peripheral neuropathy, such as diabetes, can lead to vision problems. Additionally, if the neuropathy affects the nerves controlling eye movements or the optic nerve, it may indirectly influence vision. However, this is not a common outcome of peripheral neuropathy itself.
It can, although peripheral neuropathy usually occurs first in the feet.
No, it cannot cause one, but it could potentially cause one to rupture if you have an existing aneurism.
