Paraneoplastic Dermatoses: A Brief General Review and an Extensive Analysis of Paraneoplastic Pemphigus and Paraneoplastic Dermatomyositis

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2020
Skin manifestations of systemic disease and malignancy are extremely polymorphous. Clinicians should be familiarized with paraneoplastic dermatoses in order to perform an early diagnosis of the underlying neoplasm.

Paraneoplastic pemphigus

The Journal of Dermatology, 2007
ABSTRACTParaneoplastic pemphigus (PNP) is a life‐threatening autoimmune blistering skin disease. Clinically, it is characterized by severe mucosal erosions and various cutaneous lesions associated with lymphoproliferative neoplasmas. Suprabasal acantholysis and clefts with scattered necrotic keratinocytes are the unique histopathological features.

Paraneoplastic myopathy

Current Opinion in Rheumatology, 2009
It has been recognized for some time now, that compared with the normal population, patients with idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIM) live with an increased risk of developing malignancy. In the majority of these patients, cancer-associated myositis appears to have some paraneoplastic features. The aim of the present review is to describe new data

Paraneoplastic Syndromes

Current Opinion in Neurology, 1991
Most nervous system paraneoplastic syndromes probably result from an immune attack against antigens normally expressed only in the nervous system but aberrantly expressed in a cancer. Specific antibodies in serum and cerebrospinal fluid that react with the nervous system and the cancer can be used to characterize proteins usually restricted to the ...

Paraneoplastic epilepsy

Epilepsy & Behavior, 2016
Epilepsy can be a manifestation of paraneoplastic syndromes which are the consequence of an immune reaction to neuronal elements driven by an underlying malignancy affecting other organs and tissues. The antibodies commonly found in paraneoplastic encephalitis can be divided into two main groups depending on the target antigen: 1) antibodies against ...

Paraneoplastic Syndromes

Equine Veterinary Education, 2011
Summary A paraneoplastic syndrome is a disease or symptom that is a consequence of the presence of neoplasia, but is not due to the local presence of neoplastic cells. The pathophysiology of paraneoplastic syndromes is complex. Paraneoplastic syndromes may precede the detection of an active malignancy, and thorough investigation is ...

Paraneoplastic Myelopathy

Neurologic Clinics, 2013
Paraneoplastic causes are a rare but important diagnostic consideration when evaluating myelopathy because neurologic symptoms may herald a diagnosis of cancer. Spinal cord MRI findings of longitudinally extensive, symmetric, tract-specific T2-signal changes occasionally with gadolinium enhancement are characteristic.
