Description

Si-Dian Zhuang leads a team with a rare brain disease case. Their case from twenty twenty-four deals with anti-IgLON5 disease. The ill is an autoimmune one with sleep and movement signs.

A woman of fifty-seven came in walking unsteadily for days. She also lost words for a short span of time. She had a past history of breast cancer. Brain scans showed membrane lining glow near the cerebellum. Flow scans pointed at first to meningoencephalitis instead. Blood and spinal fluid held the IgLON5 antibody. A second antibody type was also found in her.
