The authors report a patient with chorea and multifocal neurologic abnormalities associated with a small-cell lung carcinoma. A previously unreported antibody directed at a 76-kD neuronal protein antigen was identified in both serum and CSF. Antitumor treatment resulted in dramatic and sustained clinical neurologic and serologic responses.
