What Is Different about Teratoma-Associated Anti-LGI1 Encephalitis? A Long-Term Clinical and Neuroimaging Case Series

Conclusion: In our series, anti-LGI1 encephalitis included common clinical features in our series: rapidly progressive dementia, faciobrachial dystonic seizures, behavioral disorders, hyponatremia, hippocampal hyperintensity on magnetic resonance imaging, and residual cognitive deficit. We observed some differences (chronic anxiety and status epilepticus) in our case with teratoma, but a larger accumulation of cases is needed to improve our knowledge base.Eur Neurol
