title: [Paraneoplastic chorea and behavioral disorders in a patient with anti-CV2/CRMP5 antibodies and two different tumors].
abstract: BACKGROUND
  Paraneoplastic movement disorders are rare. Reported cases frequently describe association with anti-CV2/CRMP5 antibodies.
  
  
  METHODS
  We report a case of an 80-year-old man who developed sensorial neuronopathy, following by movement disorders mimicking chorea and obsessive-compulsive and behavioral disorders. These manifestations were first considered to be associated with a prostatic adenocarcinoma but PET and surgical biopsy revealed a mediastinal small cell lung carcinoma classically associated with anti-CV2/CRMP5 antibodies.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  This case demonstrates that in a context of paraneoplastic neurological syndrome, search for a classically associated cancer is necessary in order to institute adapted treatment early, even if another tumor is obvious.
