Autoimmune encephalitis with coexistent LGI1 and GABABR1 antibodies: case report

Abstract Background Autoimmune encephalitis (AE) with multiple auto-antibodies is of great clinical significance because its complex clinical manifestations and atypical imaging increase the difficulty of diagnosis, differential diagnosis and treatment, which may aggravate the disease, increase the...
