Paraneoplastic syndromes

Medical Hypotheses, 1990
A given cancer is a disease which combines a paraneoplastic syndrome with an invasive tumour capable of giving rise to metastases. Surgeons, radiotherapists, medical oncologists and experimental scientists are primarily interested in the tumour.

Paraneoplastic Syndromes

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 SYNDROMES

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.

Cutaneous paraneoplastic syndromes

Seminars in Diagnostic Pathology, 2019
A 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 ...

Cutaneous Paraneoplastic Syndromes

Archives of Dermatology, 1986
Much 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 syndromes in rheumatology

Nature Reviews Rheumatology, 2014
For 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.

Neurologic paraneoplastic syndromes

Journal of the Neurological Sciences, 1998
Several 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 neurological syndromes

Seminars in Diagnostic Pathology, 2019
Paraneoplastic 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.
