Description |
This is a paraneoplastic syndrome in which the neurologic manifestations are strongly dominated by clinical abnormalities referable to pancerebellar dysfunction, including truncal and limb ataxia. The syndrome is rare compared with paraneoplastic encephalomyelitis. Nevertheless, if one considers all cases of adult, nonfamilial cerebellar degeneration, about 50% will eventually be found to be associated with an underlying malignancy. |
