Categories of paraneoplastic autonomic dysfunction
What are the main categories of paraneoplastic autonomic dysfunction.
- 1. Diseases involving the CNS—such as limbic encephalitis
- 2. Diseases that involve both central and peripheral nervous system—subacute sensory neuronopathy and enteric neuronopathy fall within this category.
