Pathophysiology
Occurs when there's imbalance between nerve fiber damage and repair. The nerve damaging process preferentially affects autonomic and distal sensory factors seems to prevail in length-diabetic neuropathy whereas inflammation super imposed on ischemic nerve lesions is found in severe forms of focal neuropathies the thickening of the walls of small blood vessel due to redublication of the basal lamina around endothelial cells suggest role for nerve ischemia in a diabetic neuropathy.
