Zusammenfassung

Background: Paraneoplastic neurological syndromes occur as cross-reactivity of the tumor-directed immune response against nervous system structures. Antibodies against several nervous system proteins have been defined that are diagnostic for a paraneoplastic cause of neurological sequelae. The second most frequent antibody specificity seems to be anti-CRMP-5-immunoglobulin G, which is frequently associated with ANNA-1/anti-Hu-antibodies, the most frequent paraneoplastic antibody, or anti-calcium channel-antibodies. Small-cell lung carcinoma is found in the majority of patients with CRMP-5-antibodies. Only rarely…
