Hospital Practice, 1987
As the lengthy but nonetheless incomplete review suggests, paraneoplastic syndromes are protean in their manifestations and, for the most part, poorly understood. Indeed, some of the more common abnormalities in cancer patients that might be considered paraneoplastic--such as anorexia-cachexia syndrome or unexplained fever--have not been discussed ...

PARANEOPLASTIC NEUROMUSCULAR SYNDROMES [PDF]
Neurologic Clinics, 1997 Although 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 syndromes in rheumatology
Nature Reviews Rheumatology, 2014For patients that present with musculoskeletal symptoms, diagnostic procedures carried out by physicians and rheumatologists are primarily aimed at confirming or excluding the occurrence of primary rheumatic diseases. Another important trigger for musculoskeletal disease, however, is the presence of a tumour.

Paraneoplastic Musculoskeletal Syndromes
Rheumatic Disease Clinics of North America, 2020Paraneoplastic syndromes are rare diseases caused by malignancies through means other than mass effect or metastasis. Paraneoplastic phenomena can be the first sign of cancer and can be fatal. Paraneoplastic rheumatic syndromes can occur with hematologic cancers, lymphoproliferative disease, and solid tumors.

Medical Clinics of North America, 1996
The paraneoplastic syndromes are effects of cancer that occur at sites remote from the primary tumor and its metastases. Recognition of these disorders is important from both diagnostic and therapeutic viewpoints. The important paraneoplastic syndromes involving the endocrine, nervous, hematologic, and dermatologic systems are discussed in this article.

Paraneoplastic neurologic syndromes [PDF]
Neurologic Clinics, 2003 Cancer can affect the nervous system through many metastatic and nonmetastatic mechanisms, including side effects of cancer treatment, infections, coagulopathy, and metabolic or nutritional deficits. Paraneoplastic neurologic disorders (PND) are an extensive group of syndromes that cannot be explained by any of these complications and may affect any ...

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 ...

Cutaneous paraneoplastic syndromes
Seminars in Diagnostic Pathology, 2019A variety of cutaneous abnormalities can be seen in patients with malignant diseases, some of which are infectious, with others representing direct involvement of the skin by the underlying disorder. Yet another group of lesions can be regarded as associated markers of the malignant process, and, as such, are termed "paraneoplastic." This review ...

European Journal of Cancer and Clinical Oncology, 1981
Abstract: There are two types of clinical and biochemical syndromes not directly associated with the invasiveness and metastatic ability of the tumour; the first type is represented by the hormonal paraneoplastic syndromes. The second type consists of certain neurological diseases or abnormalities observed in patients with malignant tumours not ...
