EEG-Delta brushes in DPPX encephalitis – Welcome to the club
Background
Extreme Delta Brushes are a rare interictal EEG pattern that was first described in NMDA-R encephalitis and has been considered a pathognomonic pattern for this subtype of autoimmune encephalitis. Recently, extreme delta brushes have been described as a rare EEG phenomenon in other forms of encephalitis.
Case report
We describe to our knowledge the first occurrence of EEG Delta brushes in DPPX encephalitis. In this article, we present a comprehensive case report and discuss clinical differential diagnosis with special emphasis on the diagnostic value of the EEG, leading the way to the correct diagnosis. We also present current diagnostic criteria and clinical screening scales for initial evaluation for patients with suspected autoimmune encephalitis.
期刊介绍:
Clinical Neurophysiology Practice (CNP) is a new Open Access journal that focuses on clinical practice issues in clinical neurophysiology including relevant new research, case reports or clinical series, normal values and didactic reviews. It is an official journal of the International Federation of Clinical Neurophysiology and complements Clinical Neurophysiology which focuses on innovative research in the specialty. It has a role in supporting established clinical practice, and an educational role for trainees, technicians and practitioners.
