Abstract

A 43 year old Malay man was admitted to the medical ward with hypoglossal nerve palsy and papilloedema. In addition electroencephalography showed evidence of encephalopathy and he was subsequently found to have poorly differentiated multicentric renal cell carcinoma without evidence of central nervous system metastasis. The spectrum of paraneoplastic manifestations in renal cell carcinoma is reviewed.
