abstract = {Background: Small fiber neuropathy (SFN) is a challenging
subtype of peripheral neuropathies. Once the diagnosis has
been established, there is an uncertainty how SFN may
progress, whether larger fibers will become involved over
time, whether quality of life may be compromised, or whether
repeated diagnostic workup in patients with unknown
underlying cause may increase the yield of treatable causes
of SFN. Methods: We evaluated 16 patients with documented
long-time course of idiopathic SFN. Results: Clinical and
electrophysiological course remained stable in $75\%$ of the
patients, while $25\%$ SFN-patients developed large fiber
neuropathies. Conclusions: Our data suggest that SFN
represents a benign disease course in the majority of
patients without severely limiting the quality of life.},
