Choreoathetosis is a rare complication of paraneoplastic syndrome, particularly associated with small cell lung cancer. We report a case of an elderly woman with small cell lung cancer who was diagnosed with choreoathetosis due to autoimmune-mediated paraneoplastic syndrome. The differential diagnoses for focal neurological deficits such as stroke, immunotherapy-related toxicity, radiation-induced toxicity, and brain metastasis were considered but the presence of onconeural antibodies made paraneoplastic syndrome a more likely diagnosis. Management of choreoathetosis in paraneoplastic syndrome can be challenging, with limited treatment options available.
Primary cutaneous CD4+ small/medium-sized pleomorphic T-cell lymphoproliferative disorder (PCMS-TCL) is a rare skin condition. We present a 67-year-old patient with a growing lesion on the shoulder that was diagnosed as PCMS-TCL. The patient was otherwise healthy without systemic involvement. The lesion was surgically excised, and no recurrence occurred. PCMS-TCL has an excellent prognosis, unlike other cutaneous lymphomas. This case highlights the importance of crafting a comprehensive differential diagnosis that incorporates any possibilities of rare disorders like PCMS-TCL to avoid unnecessary treatment.
