Paraneoplastic syndrome is a condition where cancerous cells in your body affect your Central Nervous System - Almost like an autoimmune response to these cells that don't belong. The Paraneoplastic panel can be done on Serum and CSF (Cerebral Spinal Fluid) This Panel includes the following Screens (They are very expensive tests)- Some people have this disorder before cancer or tumor is even found in the body - This disorder is commonly found in people with Small Cell Lung Cancer
Neuronal Nuclear Antibody (ANNA) IgG Screen, by IFA Purkinje Cell Antibody, Screen Purkinje Cell Antibody, Titer Neuronal Nuclear Antibody (ANNA) Reflex IFA Titer, IgG Neuronal Nuclear Antibody IgG, Immunoblot Anti-Hu Neuronal Nuclear Antibody IgG, Immunoblot Anti-Ri Neuronal Antibody IgG, Immunoblot Anti-Hu Neuronal Antibody IgG, Immunoblot Anti-Ri Neuronal Antibody IgG, Immunoblot Anti-Yo

Paraneoplastic cerebellar degenerationParaneoplastic cerebellar degeneration is a paraneoplastic phenomenon associated with lung, ovarian, breast, and other cancers.It is believed to be due to an autoimmune reaction targeted against components of the central nervous system (specifically Purkinje cells and large brain stem nuclei). It is thought to be caused by an anti-neuronal antibody known as anti-Yo but in lung paraneoplastic cerebellar degeneration, it is thought to be caused by antibody called "anti-Hu".One of the better characterized paraneoplastic neurologic syndrome is cerebellar ataxia caused by Purkinji cell drop-out in the cerebellum; it is manifested by dysarthria, limb and gait ataxia, and nystagmus. Radiologic imaging reveals cerebellar atrophy. Many antibodies have been associated with this syndrome including anti-Yo, anti-Tr and antibodies to glutamate receptor. A large number of patients with neoplasm-associated cerebellar ataxia who display anti-Yo anti-bodies in the serum typically have a breast or ovarian cancer.
