Nodo-paranodopathy, internodopathy and cleftopathy: Target-based reclassification of Guillain–Barré-like immune-mediated polyradiculoneuropathies in dogs and cats

Highlights • We found GBS-like neuropathy in dogs and cats to present with four morphological subtypes. • Immunological targets were Schmidt-Lanterman clefts, the nodo-paranodal unit or both. • NCS/EMG did not accurately predict the IMPN subtype.
