Neuropatía Diabética: Una revisión narrativa de fisiopatología, diagnóstico y tratamiento.

Palabras clave: Neuropatías Diabéticas, Neuralgia, Diabetes Mellitus

Resumen

La neuropatía diabética se presenta hasta en el 60% de los pacientes diabéticos. La neuropatía diabética periférica es la causa más común de neuropatía en el mundo. La fisiopatología de la neuropatía diabética involucra daño periférico nervioso por acumulación de productos tóxicos derivados de la hiperglicemia. El sistema nervioso central se ve posteriormente involucrado a través de sensibilización, disminución de la función del sistema inhibitorio y aumento en la excitabilidad del sistema de facilitación. La clínica más común se manifiesta de manera simétrica afectando fibras sensitivas pequeñas y grandes, aunque se han encontrado formas atípicas de presentación. Las pruebas diagnósticas confirmatorias se reservan para la duda diagnóstica, casos de síntomas atípicos o investigación. El consenso en cuanto a tratamiento es el uso de gabapentinoides, antidepresivos tricíclicos e inhibidores de recaptura de serotonina y noradrenalina. Estas tres familias se consideran como primera línea de tratamiento.
