Rationale: Paraneoplastic syndromes occur in 10% to 20% of all malignancies, with paraneoplastic neurological syndromes in less than 1% of all malignancies. In small cell lung cancer (SCLC), paraneoplastic manifestations are more common, affecting up to 5% of cases. Common manifestations include syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone secretion, Cushing’s syndrome due to adrenocorticotropic hormone secretion, paraneoplastic cerebellar degeneration, and Lambert-Eaton myasthenic syndrome.

Abstract:
Paraneoplastic syndromes occur in cancer patients due to an alteration in their immune response. There are several factors that may result in the occurrence of paraneoplastic syndrome, including the presence of abnormal cytokines that cause widespread effects throughout the body. The paraneoplastic syndrome may be present in patients before a diagnosis of cancer, and thus, understanding it is crucial as it will help achieve a timely diagnosis, which may aid in improving the chance of treatment. It is associated with several complications/presentations in patients. In this review, we will discu

Abstract:
Paraneoplastic neurological syndromes are rare non-metastatic complications of cancer that have an immune-mediated aetiology. The central and peripheral nervous systems are considered to be immune-privileged sites, since the presence of the ‘blood-brain/nerve barrier’ means that antigens sequestered within the nervous system do not normally induce an immune response. Aberrant expression of a neuronal antigen by a tumour arising outside this barrier can lead to the breakdown of immune tolerance to the nervous system. However, in many cases the immune mechanisms that result in neurological dysfu

Migratory thrombophlebitis is a rare paraneoplastic syndrome occurred in malignancies. The association between migratory thrombophlebitis and malignancy is known as Trousseau syndrome. Thrombotic complications preceding malignancy manifestation are referred to as thrombotic mask. This paper describes successful surgical outcome of ovarian cancer associated with Trousseau syndrome. The first manifestations of this syndrome were acute proximal thrombosis in the left popliteal and left femoral vein, spontaneous arterial thrombosis, and numerous intracranial thromboses that have resulted in myocar

Introduction: Hypoglycemia is a common complication in patients with diabetes who are using either insulin or oral hypoglycemic agents. In non-diabetic patient hypoglycemia is more rare and paraneoplastic syndrome should be considered if other causes have been excluded. Hepatocellular cancer is an example of a non-islet cell tumor that can cause hypoglycemia.

Direct neurologic dysfunction from Hodgkin's Lymphoma results from metastatic intracranial spinal disease, epidural metastases causing spinal cord/cauda equina compression, leptomeningeal metastases, or intradural intramedullary spinal cord metastases.

Urticarial vasculitis (UV) is a rare small vessel vasculitis. UV is often idiopathic but can also present in the context of autoimmune disorders such as systemic lupus erythematosus, drug reactions, infections, or a paraneoplastic syndrome. Extracutaneous complications include intestinal ischemic injuries, in UV patients with nonspecific gastrointestinal symptoms such as abdominal pain and nausea. Prompt recognition and treatment can minimize morbidity and mortality. This paper describes a case of urticarial vasculitis-associated intestinal ischemia.
