Introduction: Neurological Paraneoplastic syndromes related to cancer are infrequently,

Aim(s): To report the association of CARP VIII Ab with PCD in well-differentiated lung NET.

Materials and methods: A 70-year-old woman reported progressive cerebellar ataxia of 1 month's duration; cerebral oligodendroglioma was resected without sequelae at age 46/47 years.
