Neurologic symptoms commonly occur in oncology patients, and in some cases they may be the presenting symptom of malignancy. Cancer-related neurologic syndromes are rarely pathognomonic and must be differentiated from other benign or serious conditions. This article reviews common neuro-oncologic syndromes that may lead to urgent evaluation in the emergency department, including cerebral edema, altered mental status, seizures, acute stroke, leptomeningeal metastases, and paraneoplastic neurologic syndromes.
神经系统症状在肿瘤患者中很常见,在某些情况下,它们可能是恶性肿瘤的首发症状。癌症相关的神经系统综合征很少具有特异性,必须与其他良性或严重疾病相鉴别。本文综述了一些常见的神经肿瘤综合征,这些综合征可能需要在急诊科进行紧急评估,包括脑水肿、意识状态改变、癫痫发作、急性卒中、软脑膜转移和副肿瘤性神经系统综合征。
