Autoimmune encephalitis associated with voltage‐gated potassium channels‐complex and leucine‐rich glioma‐inactivated 1 antibodies – a national cohort study

Abstract

Patients diagnosed with anti-LGI1 autoimmune encephalitis increased significantly from 2009 to 2014, probably due to increased awareness. In contrast to seropositive anti-VGKC-complex patients, all anti-LGI1-positive patients presented with a classical limbic encephalitis. The majority of patients recovered well.
