tailieunhanh - Chapter 096. Paraneoplastic Syndromes: Endocrinologic/Hematologic (Part 7)

Hematologic Syndromes: Introduction The elevation of granulocyte, platelet, and eosinophil counts in most patients with myeloproliferative disorders is caused by the proliferation of the myeloid elements due to the underlying disease rather than a paraneoplastic syndrome. The paraneoplastic hematologic syndromes in patients with solid tumors are less well characterized than the endocrine syndromes because the ectopic hormone(s) or cytokines responsible have not been identified in most of these tumors (Table 96-2). The extent of the paraneoplastic syndromes parallels the course of the cancer.
