Abstract
INTRODUCTION Onconeuronal antibodies directed against intracellular antigens are strongly associated with paraneoplastic syndromes and their detection in the absence of cancer is unusual. We herein report a case of anti-Ma2 encephalitis associated with Sjogren's syndrome (SS). CASE REPORT An 81-year-old woman followed for a cutaneous lupus with vasculitis associated with SS presented a flare of her disease with neurological worsening including walking difficulty, hypersialorrhea and dysphagia. A paraneoplastic origin of the symptoms was suspected and anti-Ma2 antibodies were positive in serum. The search for an underlying neoplasia was negative. The diagnosis of anti-Ma2 encephalitis secondary to a SS was made. In the literature, the association of anti-Ma2 encephalitis and SS has been previously reported twice. Cases of patients with other onconeuronal antibodies associated with SS have been also reported. Anti-Ma2 encephalitis is a rare condition with a wide spectrum of symptoms associated with a cancer in more than 90% of the cases. Anti-Ma2 encephalitis has also been described after the use of immune check points inhibitors underscoring the role of autoimmunity in its pathogenesis. CONCLUSION Anti-Ma2 encephalitis is essentially associated with neoplasia but can occur in Sjogren's syndrome.

Abstract
We report the case of a 51-year-old patient who presented necrosis affecting all of the toes in a context of confusion and declining general health. The etiology work-up disclosed a lung mass. Biopsy and search for extension led to the diagnosis of adenocarcinoma with liver metastasis. Unfortunately, symptomatic treatment of the digital necrosis did not lead to improvement and the patient was given palliative care. Digital necrosis generally affects the fingers. Localization on the toes is atypical and few cases have been reported in the literature.

Abstract
Acquired hemophilia A (AHA) is a rare disease, defined by the production of anti-factor VIII antibodies causing disordered hemostasis. It is idiopathic in 50% of cases, but sometimes associated with solid tumors. We report a case where AHA led to the diagnosis of lung cancer. CASE REPORT An 82-year-old man with spontaneous hematomas on his trunk and extremities, and isolated prolongation of activated partial thromboplastin time was admitted to the emergency room. A severely reduced factor VIII level and a high factor VIII inhibitor title confirmed the diagnosis of AHA. Thoracic computed tomography scan found a suspect lung nodule and biopsy was consistent with a primary lung adenocarcinoma. The patient received recombinant factor VIII, immunosuppressive therapies, and finally lung stereotactic radiotherapy. Thirty months after diagnosis, the patient is in complete remission both from AHA and from his lung cancer. CONCLUSIONS Acquired hemophilia A is a rare but potentially severe disease, which may be idiopathic or linked to a solid tumor. The severity of AHA depends on both the volume of hemorrhage and the presence of associated diseases.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Primary pulmonary lymphoma is a rare disease; diagnosis is often delayed because of atypical clinical presentation and slow progression. OBSERVATION A 42-year-old woman consulted because of haemoptysis. Chest CT-scan showed multiple nodular calcified masses. A lung biopsy led to the diagnosis of pulmonary amyloidosis with pulmonary MALT lymphoma (mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue). The patient developed two paraneoplastic syndromes: a hypertrophic osteoarthropathy and mucinosis. CONCLUSION Multiple nodular amyloidosis can be a mode of presentation for pulmonary lymphoma. Paraneoplastic syndromes must be systematically considered and can help in early diagnosis of the disease and its relapse.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Herein we report a case of phlegmasia cerulea dolens, a form of venous thrombosis complicated by arterial ischaemia. PATIENTS AND METHODS A 69-year-old man presented a bilateral trophic condition of the lower limbs that had appeared 3 weeks earlier. The patient had a history of metastatic urothelial bladder carcinoma and arteritis. Clinical examination revealed right leg ulcers with massive bilateral oedema of the lower limbs, cyanosis and local ischaemia. Doppler ultrasound revealed bilateral and proximal deep vein thrombosis (sural and superficial femoral veins of the right leg; sural and iliac veins of the left leg) without any distal arterial flow. We concluded on a diagnosis of bilateral phlegmasia cerulea dolens. DISCUSSION Phlegmasia cerulea dolens is a particular type of deep venous thrombosis in which a proximal venous thrombus is combined with arterial ischaemic signs due to brutal and massive oedema and slowing down of arterial flow. In most cases, the lower limbs are involved, with malignancy being the most common cause. It should be suspected in the presence of the classical triad of "pain, oedema and cyanosis", with confirmation by Doppler ultrasound. There is no general consensus regarding standard management. Traditionally, systemic anticoagulation has been the mainstay of treatment for this condition. Endovascular surgery may be a possibility in some cases. Prompt diagnosis and rapid treatment initiation are paramount in order to improve the prognosis of this severe condition with ominous prospects.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Malignant thymoma or thymic hyperplasia is associated with various autoimmune diseases. Renal disease has rarely been reported in this condition. We report a new case with improvement of renal disease after thymectomy. CASE REPORT A 77-year-old-women with nephritic syndrome was found to have associated thymic mass. Renal pathology showed membranous nephropathy. The thymic mass pathology showed a B2 type thymoma. After thymectomy the nephrotic syndrome improved. CONCLUSION Glomerulopathy can be secondary to an acquired thymic disease. Membranous nephropathy but also other glomerular diseases can be observed often presenting with nephritic syndrome. Despite the rarity of this association this clinical observation underlines that a thymoma should be searched in the presence of a glomerulopathy. The glomerulopathy can be improved by the treatment of the thymoma.

Abstract
Paraneoplastic syndromes commonly occur in malignancies and often precede the first symptoms of the tumor. By definition, paraneoplastic syndromes are only associated with malignancies although some exceptions have been reported, occurring with benign tumors. We report a patient presenting with a clinical and serological Sharp syndrome, followed a few months later by a cervical schwannoma. Curative surgical resection of the mass resulted in a clinical and serological healing from the Sharp syndrome. To our knowledge, this is the first report of a benign schwannoma complicated by a possible paraneoplastic Sharp syndrome.

Abstract
The broncho-pulmonary small cell carcinoma is the most common cancer provider paraneoplastic syndrome especially neurological and endocrine but also cutaneous syndrome. Paraneoplastic dermatosis do not result from a direct extension of cancer and are not metastases, but their presence is suggestive of an underlying tumor. The evolution of the dermatosis is parallel to that of cancer: treating cancer results in the regression of cutaneous manifestations. We report an observation of a 44-year-old smoker, who was hospitalized for a tissue excavated process associated with bullous dermatosis. The transmural puncture biopsy finds small cell carcinoma. The skin biopsy objective bullous pemphigoid. The evolution under chemotherapy was marked regression of bullous lesions and the patient died later after metastatic extension. Cutaneous paraneoplastic syndrome appears only in a minority of cancer patients, but its recognition is very important for early diagnosis.
