The syndrome of tumor-induced osteomalacia has been previously thought to occur only in association with mesenchymal tumors, although one report has linked prostatic carcinoma with the syndrome. We report the case of a patient who presented first with the clinical and biochemical features of the syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone secretion, and then oncogenic osteomalacia. The first syndrome was characterized by headaches, nausea, and vomiting; serum sodium determinations ranged between 107 and 118 meq/L with simultaneous urine spot sodium concentrations of 100 to 116 meq/L. The circulating antidiuretic hormone level was markedly elevated to 261.5 microU/mL. The osteomalacia was discovered incidentally when depressed serum phosphorus levels of 1.2 to 1.7 mg/dL were noted in association with 24-hour urine phosphorus excretion exceeding 1000 mg/24 h. Undecalcified tetracycline-labeled bone biopsy samples confirmed oncogenic osteomalacia. Only afterward was a small-cell carcinoma of the lung identified as the likely source of both of these syndromes.

Renal phosphate wasting related to a tumor (oncogenous osteomalacia) is a rare disorder usually associated with benign mesenchymal tumors. In this article, the authors describe a man with renal phosphate wasting and the syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone associated with small cell carcinoma. Chemotherapy markedly reduced tumor burden and was associated with normalization of renal phosphate handling and serum sodium. With recurrence, renal phosphate wasting and the syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone developed again, with the additional complication of hypercortisolism secondary to ectopic corticotropin production. The authors report the rare occurrence of renal phosphate wasting with small cell carcinoma (5 previously reported cases) and the unique co-existence of this paraneoplastic syndrome with the syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone and ectopic corticotropin production.

Acquired isolated renal phosphate wasting associated with a tumor, known as oncogenic osteomalacia or tumor-induced osteomalacia, is a rare paraneoplastic syndrome caused by overproduction of fibroblast growth factor 23. Oncogenic osteomalacia is usually associated with benign mesenchymal tumors. Syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone secretion (SIADH), on the other hand, is a common paraneoplastic syndrome caused by small cell carcinoma (SCC). Concomitant oncogenic osteomalacia and SIADH associated with SCC is very rare with only 4 other cases reported in the literature. The authors report a case of small cell lung cancer (SCLC)-related renal wasting hypophosphatemia and concurrent SIADH, and review the literature reporting 9 other cases of SCC associated with oncogenic osteomalacia. Almost half of reported cases of renal phosphate wasting associated with SCC concomitantly presented with SIADH. These cases had initial serum phosphorus level lower and survival periods shorter than those without SIADH. This rare combination of a dual paraneoplastic syndrome and low serum phosphorus may be a poor prognostic sign. In addition, both renal phosphate wasting and SIADH usually occur in a short period of time before identification of SCC. Therefore, renal wasting hypophosphatemia with concomitant SIADH/hyponatremia should prompt a search for SCC rather than a benign mesenchymal tumor.

Paraneoplastic syndromes are defined as clinical syndromes that are not related to direct tumor invasion or compression but are secondary to tumor secretion of functional peptides/hormones or related to immune cross-reactivity with normal host tissue. Paraneoplastic syndromes have a wide range of presentations and can present before the primary malignancy or tumor recurrence is diagnosed. They can mimic non-neoplastic processes, making detection, diagnosis and treatment difficult. However, they can also provide clues to the presence of an underlying malignancy. In this paper, we reviewed a range of paraneoplastic syndromes that can occur in children including: (1) neurologic (opsoclonus-myoclonus, limbic, anti-N-methyl-d-aspartate [NMDA] and anti-Ma2 encephalitis and myasthenia gravis); (2) endocrine (neuroendocrine tumors, hypercalcemia, SIADH [syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone secretion], osteomalacia/rickets and ROHHAD [rapid onset of obesity, hypoventilation, hypothalamic dysfunction and autonomic dysregulation]); and (3) dermatologic/rheumatologic syndromes (hypertrophic osteoarthropathy and paraneoplastic pemphigus). Familiarity with these syndromes can aid in early diagnosis, treatment and imaging optimization.

Neuroendocrine paraneoplastic syndromes (PNS) consist of metabolic disorders that accompany benign and malignant neoplasms but remain unrelated to mass effects or invasion by the primary tumor or its metastases. The underlying pathogenesis responsible for PNS usual clinical presentation relies on aberrant production of protein hormones, proteins and other substances by the tumor. Prompt recognition of characteristic signs and symptoms combined with serological identification of key substances may result in early diagnosis of PNS and its underlying malignancy. For these reasons, healthcare professionals should familiarize themselves with tumor-induced hypercalcemia, syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone, carcinoid syndrome, virilisation syndrome, gynecomastia, acromegaly, Cushing syndrome, osteogenic osteomalacia, tumor-induced hypoglycemia, necrolytic migratory erythema, and watery diarrhea, hypokalemia and achlorydria syndrome. Medical awareness for PNS can improve patient outcomes through earlier administration of cancer therapy and treatment, better symptomatic relief and prolong overall survival.
