A Severe Case of Diabetic Lumbosacral Radiculoplexus Neuropathy: A Diagnosis of Exclusion.

Diabetic lumbosacral radiculoplexus neuropathy (DLSRPN), also known as diabetic amyotrophy, is a rare disease of exclusion that is difficult to diagnose due to its non-specific clinical presentation of neuropathy, autonomic symptoms, and potential weight loss. Due to this, many differential diagnoses are raised before making a diagnosis of such an uncommon disease. However, once the diagnosis is made, the management of this disease can vary. Here, we would like to discuss the etiology, pathophysiology, diagnosis, and management of this disease, as well as present a rare case of diabetic lumbosacral radiculoplexus neuropathy in a 50-year-old male.
