Paraneoplastic Cerebellar Degeneration in Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma and Review of associated Onconeural Antibodies

Paraneoplastic neurologic syndromes are rare but well described presentation of certain malignancies in both children and adults. Cerebellar dysfunction is a common paraneoplastic presentation and has been previously reported in association with small cell lung cancer, breast cancers, ovarian tumors, renal cell carcinoma, follicular lymphoma, and Hodgkin ’s lymphoma. There are only a handful of case reports with the association of paraneoplastic neurologic presentation with Non-Hodgkin lymphoma including Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma (DLBCL).
