مستخلص: |
Neurological paraneoplastic syndromes (NPS) belong to a heterogeneous group of disorders affecting the nervous system. NPS occur as a result of immunological reaction to the tumor. As a result, the isolated syndrome is formed and manifests itself in many different ways, for example: limbic encephalitis, ataxia, dominant cerebellar degeneration, psychiatric disturbances, myasthenia gravis or diffuse encephalomyelitis. Detection of NPS is solely based on the presence of specific anti-neural antibodies. Although NPS had been previously considered unresponsive to therapy, some research has shown that there are effective therapies, including cancer- and immunotherapy targeted therapies.
