Neurologic complications of solid tumors.
This article reviews the neurologic complications of the most common solid tumors, including lung, breast, gastrointestinal, genitourinary, gynecologic, head and neck cancers, melanoma and sarcomas. As systemic therapy improves for many of these tumors, patients are surviving longer and the incidence of neurologic complications is increasing.
