“…Существует мнение, что ТВ являются паттерном БЭС, формируясь в условиях метаболических нарушений [36]. Другим элементом, выявляющимся у 30% больных при ЭЭГ-мониторинге и трактующимся в качестве патогномоничного при анти-NMDA-r-энцефалите, выступают экстремальные «бета-дельта щетки», представляющие собой симметричные, синхронные, распространяющиеся на все области мозга, длительные эпизоды медленных волн в основном δ-диапазона, на которые накладываются быстрые β-колебания [47,48].…”

The clinical picture of immunomediator disorders of the central nervous system resulting from autoimmune or paraneoplastic processes is often represented by the limbic symptom complex or limbic encephalitis. The article gives a brief description of these conditions, allocated to a separate nosological group in 2007. The symptoms of limbic encephalitis include mental disorders and epileptic seizures of both convulsive and non-convulsive spectrum, up to epileptic status. Four clinical cases representative of different variants of limbic encephalitis are presented in this study, along with the discussion of epidemiology, differential diagnostics, and generally accepted patient management strategies. The diagnosis of limbic encephalitis was made on clinical grounds alone in three cases and on the presence of antibodies to N -Methyl- d -aspartic acid receptors in one case. A combination of glucocorticoid pulse therapy with prolonged use of valproic acid was successfully applied for the treatment of limbic encephalitis with non-convulsive epileptic status. Plasmapheresis was used for the treatment of limbic encephalitis with recurrent focal non-motor attacks with and without loss of consciousness, as well as for limbic encephalitis with focal motor attacks. Presented cases emphasize the need to increase the awareness of physicians of various specialties to autoimmune disorders of the nervous system. In addition, it highlights the necessity of complete diagnostic workup for a patient with impaired consciousness of unclear etiology.
