Abstract
Paraneoplastic syndromes are rare disorders that accompany the benign or malignant tumours but are not directly related to mass effects or invasion. Here we report a case of 62 year old male who presented with Peripheral neuropathy, further evaluation showed hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Though HCC can present as paraneoplastic syndromes, Peripheral neuropathy is a rare presentation of hepatocellular carcinoma. Recognition & diagnosis of paraneoplastic neuropathy is important as neuropathic symptoms usually precede the identification of primary tumor. Treatment at an earlier stage has better prognosis.
