research Cutaneous Paraneoplastic Syndromes in Dogs and Cats: A Review of the Literature

105 citations, December 2003 in “Veterinary Dermatology”

The review discussed cutaneous paraneoplastic syndromes in dogs and cats, which are noncancerous skin disorders linked to internal malignancies. These syndromes can aid in the early detection and treatment of underlying cancers. While over 30 such disorders were identified in humans, only a few were recognized in veterinary medicine, possibly due to lower incidence or lack of recognition. Notable syndromes in animals included feline paraneoplastic alopecia, feline thymoma-associated exfoliative dermatitis, and paraneoplastic pemphigus. The causes of these syndromes remained largely unknown in both humans and animals.
