摘要：

We present an illustrative case of a 62-year-old woman with small cell lung cancer who developed progressive worsening of pre-existing anti-Hu antibody associated sensory neuronopathy after treatment with programmed cell death-1 (PD-1) inhibitor, nivolumab. We review the literature and identify 6 reported cases to understand the clinical outcomes of patients with anti-Hu paraneoplastic neurologic syndrome (PNS) treated with anti-PD-1 treatment. The PNS clinical spectrum comprised of encephalitis, a combination of sensory neuronopathy and anti-NMDAR encephalitis, isolated sensory neuronopathy, and encephalomyelitis. Immune checkpoint inhibitor have the potential to worsen pre-existing anti-Hu PNS and may promote the development of anti-Hu PNS.
