A '''paraneoplastic syndrome''' is a [[disease]] or [[symptom]] that is the consequence of the presence of [[cancer]] in the body, but is not due to the local presence of cancer cells. These phenomena are mediated by [[humoral]] factors (by [[Hormone|hormones]] or [[Cytokine|cytokines]]) excreted by tumor cells or by an [[immune response]] against the [[tumor]].
If left untreated, [#]% of patients with [disease name] may progress to develop [manifestation 1], [manifestation 2], and [manifestation 3].
