Paraneoplastic Syndromes Involving the Nervous System

New England Journal of Medicine, 2003
Paraneoplastic neurologic syndromes are incited by a tumor outside the nervous system that produces a characteristic antigen of the nervous system. An immune response against the ectopic tumor antigen not only damages nerve tissue but also inhibits growth of the tumor.

PARANEOPLASTIC SYNDROMES AFFECTING THE CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM

Annual Review of Medicine, 1997
▪ Abstract  Paraneoplastic syndromes affecting the nervous system are rare neurologic syndromes caused by cancer but not ascribable to metastases. Any portion of the nervous system may be involved in a paraneoplastic syndrome. The pathogenesis of these disorders appears to be an immune reaction against antigens shared by the cancer and the nervous ...

Paraneoplastic Syndromes Affecting the Nervous System

Seminars in Oncology, 2006
The paraneoplastic neurologic disorders (PND) are a diverse group of diseases characterized by the presence of neurologic dysfunction in the setting of a remote cancer. PND can affect almost any part of the nervous system, and are most commonly associated with lung cancer (small cell) and gynecologic tumors. Laboratory studies have demonstrated that an

Autoimmune paraneoplastic syndromes associated to lung cancer: A systematic review of the literature Part 4: Neurological paraneoplastic syndromes, involving the peripheral nervous system and the neuromuscular junction and muscles

Lung Cancer, 2017
The development of new immune treatment in oncology and particularly for lung cancer may induce new complications, particularly activation or reactivation of auto-immune diseases. In this context, a systematic review on the auto-immune paraneoplastic syndromes that can complicate lung cancer appears useful.
