Abstract: Faciobrachial dystonic seizures (FBDS), a hallmark of autoimmune encephalitis with leucine-rich glioma inactivated-1 (LGI1) antibodies (anti-LGI1 encephalitis) usually present as brief dystonic contraction of unilateral face and ipsilateral arm lasting less than 3 seconds. Here,… read more here.

Abstract: Leucine-rich glioma inactivated 1(LGI1) antibodies are frequently associated with a common form of limbic encephalitis (LE) presenting with cognitive impairment, tonic-clonic and distinctive facio-brachial dystonic seizures (FBDS), not related with a specific EEG pattern. We… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/cen3.12621
Abstract: Leucine‐rich, glioma‐inactivated (LGI1) antibody encephalitis is a rare autoimmune encephalitis characterized by faciobrachial dystonic seizures (FBDS), temporal lobe epilepsy, prominent short‐term memory deficits and altered mental status. FBDS are very brief, frequent stereotypical dystonic seizures… read more here.

Abstract: hyperintensity, (b) the MRI fluid‐attenuated inversion recovery image showed bilateral hippocampal hyperintensity (arrows). (c–k) Positron emission tomography based on 2‐deoxy‐2‐[18F] fluoro‐D‐glucose showed a diffuse decrease in glucose metabolism (green color) in the cerebral cortex and… read more here.
