Two types of neuropathy have been described with this agent: acute or transient and chronic or persistent, with different etiology, clinical manifestations and prognosis. This paper is an exhaustive review about the main aspects of oxaliplatin induced peripheral neuropathy, focus in clinical features, treatment, prevention strategies and future approach.
