The global severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 pandemic contributed to the development of a large variety of vaccines, of which postvaccinal hyperacute encephalopathy is a very rare complication. Despite its rarity, if diagnosed properly, appropriate treatment can be rapidly applied. A healthy 53-year-old woman was admitted for a seizure on the day she received the second dose of the BNT 162b2 nCoV-19 vaccine.

Paraneoplastic neurological syndromes (PNSs) comprise a subset of immune-mediated nervous system diseases triggered by an underlying malignancy. Each syndrome usually shows a distinct clinical presentation and outcome according to the associated neural antibodies. PNSs generally have a subacute onset with rapid progression and severe neurological disability.

Major advances in our knowledge concerning autoimmune and paraneoplastic cerebellar ataxias have occurred in the last 20 years. The discovery of several neural antibodies represents an undeniable contribution to this field, especially those serving as good biomarkers of paraneoplastic neurological syndromes and those showing direct pathogenic effects. Yet, many patients still lack detectable or known antibodies, and also many antibodies have only been reported in few patients, which makes it difficult to define in detail their clinical value.
