Restless legs syndrome (RLS) has been frequently reported in association with peripheral neuropathy, and it is especially frequent in some forms of polyneuropathy with preferential involvement of small sensory fibers. Here, we describe a patient with multifocal motor neuropathy, who developed RLS during the course of the disease. Our findings support the notion that RLS may develop in the context of immune-mediated neuropathies and it should be specifically investigated even in those patients with preferentially or exclusive motor involvement

Abstract
Restless legs syndrome (RLS) has been frequently reported in association with peripheral neuropathy, and it is especially frequent in some forms of polyneuropathy with preferential involvement of small sensory fibers. Here, we describe a patient with multifocal motor neuropathy, who developed RLS during the course of the disease. Our findings support the notion that RLS may develop in the context of immune-mediated neuropathies and it should be specifically investigated even in those patients with preferentially or exclusive motor involvement
