    AbstractIn two men presenting with muscle weakness and disturbances of equilibrium neurophysiological examination by repeated stimulations revealed responses suggestive of Lambert-Eaton syndrome. In the first month of the disease very high levels of anti-Hu antibody were found in the serum and CSF, betraying a malignant lesion. This was confirmed by autopsy 4 months later in one patient and by bronchial biopsy 16 months later in the other patient. Both had small-cell lung carcinoma associated with paraneoplastic encephalomyelitis.
