title: Non-small-cell lung cancer with multiple paraneoplastic syndromes.
abstract: We describe the case of a patient with multiple paraneoplastic syndromes, six in total, associated with a non-small-cell cancer of the lung. In this single patient we found hypertrophic pulmonary osteoarthropathy, hyperkeratosis of palms and soles, erythema annulare centrifugum, syndrome of inappropriate secretion of antidiuretic hormone (SIADH), and ectopic andrenocorticotrophic hormone (ACTH) and calcitonin production.
