Abstract

A prospective multimodal neurophysiological study was conducted on 36 patients with end‐stage renal failure, 16 of whom subsequently underwent renal transplantation (TR). Nerve conduction study and somatosensory evoked potentials revealed that peripheral conduction deficit, often sub‐clinical, was the commonest abnormality, and TR resulted in substantial improvement. Visual evoked potentials demonstrated subclinical impairment, which did not improve after TR. The brainstem auditory evoked potentials were essentially normal and unaffected by TR. 1991 Blackwell Munksgaard
