    Author: Incecik F, Herguner OM, Besen S, Yılmaz M.
    Journal: Acta Neurol Belg; 2018 Sep; 118(3):411-414. PubMed ID: 29349679.
    Abstract:
    Antibodies against glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD) are associated with various neurologic conditions described in patients including stiff person syndrome, cerebellar ataxia, refractory epilepsy, limbic and extralimbic encephalitis. GAD antibodies-related limbic encephalitis cases are well described; reports of extralimbic involvement are limited. We describe four cases of GAD antibody-related autoimmune encephalitis. Three of them had extralimbic involvement and only one had limbic encephalitis.
