Neurophysiological characterization of chemically induced neuropathies

Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is a common complication. These chemotherapies for which patients present symptoms in the short term are most often the platinum derivatives (PD) and Taxanes. The neurotoxicity of these molecules has long been reported. Their indications are often similar. However it would appear that their neurotoxic effects would not have the same weight chronologically. This is what we have tried to explain in this book in order to better guide the clinician in his management.
