Paraneoplastic cerebellar degeneration (PCD) is an immune-mediated neurological disease characterized by adaptive immune response against onconeural antigens physiologically expressed in the cerebellum. It is characterized by presence of highly specific onconeural autoantibodies such as anti-Yo, anti-Hu, anti-Ri, and anti-Ma2 in the serum and cerebrospinal fluid as diagnostic biomarkers. Antiamphiphysin autoantibodyrelated paraneoplastic encephalitis is a less commonly seen autoimmune neurological disorder usually presenting as stiff person syndrome. We present an unusual case of isolated antiamphiphysin antibody-related PCD presenting as vestibulocerebellar syndrome with associated sensorineural hearing loss and sensory neuropathy. FDG PET helped in topographical localization of brain lesion along with early detection of extragonadal germ cell tumor in the retroperitoneum.

Wilms’ tumor also called as nephroblastoma is commonly seen extracranial solid tumor involving kidneys in children. Rarely, Wilms’ tumor can arise from ectopic nephrogenic remnants located outside the kidneys. Extrarenal Wilms’ tumor comprises 3% of total Wilms’ tumor with its incidence even less common in adults. We report the staging and restaging fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography-computed tomography findings in a case of locally advanced metastatic extrarenal adult Wilms’ tumor involving the retroperitoneum.

Constrictive pericarditis refers to focal or global thickening of pericardium causing impedance to diastolic filling and increased systemic venous pressure. We discuss a case of thymic carcinoma presenting as constrictive pericarditis. A 70-year-old man experiencing shortness of breath underwent Doppler echocardiography for further evaluation. Echocardiography was suggestive of thickened nodular pericardium with minimal pericardial effusion, and Doppler features were suggestive of constrictive pericarditis. 18F-FDG PET/CT done to exclude malignancy reveals locally advanced thymic carcinoma spreading along the pericardial sheath with metabolically active rib metastases.
