Paraneoplastic syndromes are not a direct consequence of neither the primary tumour nor its metastasis. The clinical course of these syndromes sometimes correlates to the malignancy underneath itself, what may suggest an ascertain paraneoplastic etiology. However, some other times both the paraneoplastic syndrome and the tumour follow independent courses. In any of these situations it is essential to consider their potential existence for they may suppose the first sign of a malignant process. This will contribute to their early detection in a curable stage and their use as clinical tumour markers of early recurrences in treated patients
