Motor neuron disease as a treatment responsive paraneoplastic neurological syndrome in patient with small cell lung cancer, anti-Hu antibodies and limbic encephalitis

Non-classical paraneoplastic neurological syndrome (PNS) may be identified and classified as “definite” and “probable” according to the antineuronal antibodies status and the presence or absence of an associated cancer [1]. Paraneoplastic motor neuron disease (PMND) is a rare, potentially treatable, non-classical PNS that may be undistinguishable from sporadic motor neuron disease (MND) [2].
