abstract: The paraneoplastic syndrome does exist and its manifestations are as old as malignancy itself. Progress in molecular pathology will help us to understand its origin. At the same time, each investigator is obliged to develop therapeutic means that can be offered to the cancer patient to overcome its painful and troublesome disorders.
