Abstract

Paraneoplastic syndromes in Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) can be seen with different symptoms and organ findings within a significant time before definite diagnosis of the primary disease. Achalasia, Holmes-Adie pupil, and limbic encephalitis are rarely reported paraneoplastic components in pediatric HL. In this report, we present an 11-year-old girl who had all these three paraneoplastic components synchronously before HL was identified.
