TY - CHAP M1 - Book, Section TI - Chapter 66. The Peripheral Nerves & Skeletal Muscle A1 - Chandrasoma, Parakrama A1 - Taylor, Clive R. PY - 1998 T2 - Concise Pathology, 3e AB - The peripheral nerves, neuromuscular junction, and skeletal muscle represent the final component of the lower motor neuron unit and are discussed together for that reason. Diseases involving these structures result in muscle weakness. The peripheral nerves also have sensory and autonomic fibers, and—unlike diseases of muscle, which result in motor dysfunction alone—peripheral nerve diseases are manifested by a combination of motor and sensory loss.
