Abstract

Lung cancer is the second most common malignant disease worldwide. It is estimated that around 2.2 million new cases of lung cancer are diagnosed each year. The clinic is very polymorphous, the neurological manifestation can be part of a paraneoplastic syndrome or secondary damage by tumor infiltration. The damage can be central or be central or peripheral. Here we report a case of a known smoking patient who presented with peripheral neurogenic syndrome which revealed lung cancer.

Keywords: Sensitive Neuropathy; Lung Cancer
