Electroencephalographic findings in antileucine-rich glioma-inactivated 1 (LGI1) autoimmune encephalitis: A systematic review.

CONCLUSION: Electroencephalogram abnormalities are seen in anti-LGI1 autoimmune encephalitis with epileptiform discharges as the most common finding followed by focal slowing. These findings were most frequently seen arising in the temporal region. Further studies using a standardized protocol focusing on electroencephalographic findings in anti-LGI1 encephalitis with clinical correlation to disease stage and treatment outcomes in terms of seizure control and memory and cognitive function are needed. Particular attention on ictal electrodecremental activity during FBDS should be done in studies with a larger sample size. PMID: 32971385 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
