Steroid-Responsive Chronic Schizophreniform Syndrome in the Context of Mildly Increased Antithyroid Peroxidase Antibodies
BACKGROUND Schizophreniform syndromes can be divided into primary forms from polygenic causes or secondary forms due to immunological, epileptiform, monogenic, or degenerative causes. Steroid-responsive encephalopathy associated with autoimmune thyroiditis (SREAT) is a secondary immunological form associated with increased thyroid antibodies, such as antithyroid peroxidase antibodies and shows ...

متن کاملImmune-mediated steroid-responsive epileptic spasms and epileptic encephalopathy associated with VGKC-complex antibodies.
Autoantibodies that bind to voltage-gated potassium-channel complex proteins (VGKC-complex antibodies) occur frequently in adults with limbic encephalitis presenting with cognitive impairment and seizures. Recently, VGKC-complex antibodies have been described in a few children with limbic encephalitis, and children with unexplained encephalitis presenting with status epilepticus. We report a ca...
متن کاملSteroid-Responsive Recurrent Encephalopathy Associated with Subacute Thyroiditis
BACKGROUND Steroid-responsive encephalopathy associated with subacute thyroiditis has, to our knowledge, not been reported previously. CASE REPORT A 49-year-old woman was found collapsed and brought to our institution with decreased mentality, dysarthria, and gait disturbance. Brain magnetic resonance imaging and angiography were normal but blood tests revealed thyroid-autoantibody-negative t...
متن کاملSteroid-responsive inclusion body myositis associated with endometrial cancer.
Inclusion body myositis (IBM) is an uncommon chronic inflammatory myopathy. Although the association between other myopathies and cancer has been well established, the relationship between IBM and neoplasia is not completely understood. Unlike polymyositis (PM) or dermatomyositis (DM), IBM rarely responds to immunosuppressive treatment and the response is seldom long-lasting. We describe a case...
