Anti-Ma and Anti-Ta Associated Paraneoplastic Neurological Syndromes: 22 Newly Diagnosed Patients and Review of Previous Cases JNNP 79:767-773,742, Hoffmann,L.A.,et al, 2008 See this aricle in Pubmed Article Abstract Analysis of 22 new patients (14 anti-Ma, eight anti-Ta) confirmed that anti-Ta are usually found in young men with limbic encephalitis and testicular germ cell tumours who stabilise neurologically with long term survival after tumour treatment. Refining and expanding the range of anti-Ma/anti-Ta associated neurological presentations and tumours clearly demonstrated that the distinction between anti-Ma and anti-Ta associated PNS is of high clinical relevance.
