[The paraneoplastic syndrome from the neurologic viewpoint].
In general paraneoplastic syndromes of both muscles and nervous system (central/peripheral) occur quite rare. The incidence varies with respect to the different clinical syndromes and the underlying malignant disease. In detail there are myopathies (dermatomyositis, Lambert-Eaton-syndrome), neuropathies (sensory type Denny-Brown, sensorimotor type, neuromyopathies) spinal cord affection (subacute necrotizing myelopathy, subacute spinocerebellar degeneration, motor neuron disease) and brain affection (subacute cerebellar degeneration, bulbar encephalitis, limbic encephalitis, progressive multifocal leukencephalopathy).
