Diagnosis of Paraneoplastic Neurological Syndromes

Abstract

Andrea Remuzzi*

Paraneoplastic Neurological Syndromes are rare disorders that occur when the immune system mistakenly attacks the nervous system in response to cancer. These syndromes can affect any part of the nervous system, including the brain, spinal cord, peripheral nerves, and neuromuscular junction. PNS are often difficult to diagnose and can cause significant disability and morbidity. In this article, we will discuss the causes, symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment of PNS. PNS are caused by an immune response to cancer. The immune system recognizes cancer cells as foreign and mounts an attack against them. In some cases, the immune system also attacks healthy nerve cells, causing neurological symptoms.
