Cutaneous Paraneoplastic Syndromes
Archives of Dermatology, 1986Much has been written about what constitutes a paraneoplastic syndrome, but considerable confusion remains. The term paraneoplastic partially derives from the Greek word para , which, among other things, means "by the side of," denoting a closeness of position, a spatial or temporal association.

Paraneoplastic rheumatologic syndromes
Current Opinion in Rheumatology, 2013To describe rheumatic syndromes that can be a paraneoplastic manifestation of an underlying malignancy. The pathogenesis of paraneoplastic rheumatologic diseases is complex and not fully understood in the majority of instances. In the absence of a defined pathogenic link between the malignancy and the rheumatic syndrome, the association between these ...

Paraneoplastic neurological syndromes
Seminars in Diagnostic Pathology, 2019Paraneoplastic neurological syndromes (PNS) constitute a heterogeneous group of cancer-related disorders that can affect any level of the central and peripheral nervous system. There is compelling evidence that PNS are caused by an immune response directed against neural antigens that are abnormally expressed by the tumour.

PARANEOPLASTIC NEUROMUSCULAR SYNDROMES
Neurologic Clinics, 1997Although paraneoplastic syndromes are rare, a number of well- defined, neuromuscular paraneoplastic syndromes have been described and their pathophysiology listed. Many different malignancies have been associated with these syndromes, but small-cell lung cancer is the most common.

Paraneoplastic Neurologic Syndromes
Neurologic Clinics, 2008Paraneoplastic neurologic syndromes (PNS) are mostly immune-mediated disorders that occur in patients with cancer. Because the same neurologic syndromes may occur without a cancer association it is important to know the likelihood of PNS, which is based in part on the syndrome and the patient's demographics and risk factors for cancer.

Paraneoplastic rheumatic syndromes
Best Practice & Research Clinical Rheumatology, 2000Malignant neoplasms are associated with a wide variety of paraneoplastic rheumatological syndromes. Among these, hypertrophic osteoarthropathy, carcinoma polyarthritis, dermatomyositis/polymyositis, and paraneoplastic vasculitis are the most frequently recognized.

Neurologic paraneoplastic syndromes
Journal of the Neurological Sciences, 1998Several neurologic paraneoplastic disorders are believed to be caused by an autoimmune reaction against antigen(s) co-expressed by tumour cells and neurons. Of the paraneoplastic syndromes, the evidence for an autoimmune etiology is strongest for the Lambert-Eaton myasthenic syndrome, in which autoantibodies downregulate voltage-gated calcium channels ...

Paraneoplastic pemphigus/paraneoplastic autoimmune multiorgan syndrome
International Journal of Dermatology, 2009AbstractParaneoplastic pemphigus is the term used for an exclusive subset of pemphigus. The clinical lesions may resemble pemphigus, pemphigoid, erythema multiforme, graft‐vs.‐host disease, or lichen planus. A common denominator in all patients is the concomitant occurrence of either occult or confirmed systemic neoplasm.

Paraneoplastic neurologic syndromes
Current Neurology and Neuroscience Reports, 2006Paraneoplastic neurologic disorders (PND) are remote medical complications of cancer that cannot be attributed to direct effects of the neoplasm or its metastases. PND are uncommon, disabling syndromes that have been recognized for more than 50 years.

Common paraneoplastic syndromes
Clinical Techniques in Small Animal Practice, 2003Cancer has many effects on the veterinary patient. One group of syndromes that must be paid particular attention to is the paraneoplastic diseases. These are a group of changes that occur in the body at sites distant from the actual tumor. Paraneoplastic syndromes can affect many different body systems.
