Neurologic manifestations of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) range in severity from mild paresthesias in the hand from carpal tunnel syndrome to sudden death caused by impingement of the medulla by an eroded, vertically subluxed dens. Most neurologic complications are a consequence of articular inflammation and damage that leads to compression of adjacent structures of the central or peripheral nervous systems. Rare but serious extra-articular manifestations include inflammation of the meninges and ischemic neuropathies caused by necrotizing arteritis of the vasa vasorum. Medical therapy with synthetic disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs and biologic agents has diminished the incidence of serious neurologic manifestations in RA.
