[83] [84] One especially poorly understood form of neuropathy was a delayed onset nerve palsy, called tardy nerve palsy. [85] While some cases of tardy nerve palsy could be ascribed to obvious causes such a structural lesion (e.g. broken wrist) or tumors causing compression, many cases of tardy nerve palsy had no clear cause and so were deemed ...
