Abstract:
Intestinal pseudo-obstruction is a rare paraneoplastic manifestation of small-cell carcinoma of the lung. This report documents a further case associated with neuronal degeneration of enteric neural plexuses and a high serum titre of immunoglobulin G (IgG) type 1 anti-neuronal nuclear antibodies (ANNA-1).
