neuropatía periférica paraneoplásica
Scope note: Neuropatía periférica difusa o multifocal relacionada con los efectos remotos de una neoplasia, con mayor frecuencia carcinoma o linfoma. Patológicamente, hay cambios inflamatorios en los nervios periféricos. La presentación clínica más frecuente es una polineuropatpía mixta distal, simétrica, sensitivomotora.

Scope note: A diffuse or multifocal peripheral neuropathy related to the remote effects of a neoplasm, most often carcinoma or lymphoma. Pathologically, there are inflammatory changes in peripheral nerves. The most common clinical presentation is a symmetric distal mixed sensorimotor polyneuropathy.
