dc.description.abstractIn this study, the conduction of the femoral nerve has been evaluated in diabetic patients without clinical signs of femoral nerve involvement and in a group of healthy subjects. Forty-eight patients have been included in the study. Patients have been examined in terms of neuropathy and their neuropathy scores have been calculated. In addition to the nerve conduction studies have been performed. The findings of the diabetic patients have been compared with those of the 26 healthy volunteers. There has been a statistically significant difference between diabetics and the healthy volunteers in the control group in terms of both femoral nerve motor latency and amplitude. The femoral latencies of patients have significantly been related to the total neuropathy score. A significant difference between diabetic patients without polyneuropathy and the controls was observed with respect to their femoral latencies. In our study, femoral nerve conduction abnormalities have been determined in diabetics who clinically did not have femoral nerve involvement. It has been observed that these abnormalities become more evident as the polyneuropathy of the patients becomes more serious. Our study has shown that femoral nerve conductions may increase the sensitivity of the diagnosis of polyneuropathy.en_US
