Abstract

Chronic neuropathy is the most prevalent of the diabetic complications. Distal and symmetric sensitive polyneuropathy, and autonomic compromise, particularly cardiac autonomic neuropathy,are the most studied; occasionally they are asymptomatic.

Like diabetic patients, prediabetics can also develop neuropathy. Prevention is a key component in these complications.

Autonomic neuropathy affects several body´s organs and systems. Our goal is to describe those less known clinical manifestations, and because of this, less considered complications that affect cardiovascular, gastrointestinal system and bladder functioning.
