A encefalite autoimune do tronco encefálico é uma doença inflamatória imunomediada do tronco encefálico que resulta em sintomas e sinais subagudos (normalmente neuropatias cranianas múltiplas) relacionados ao tronco encefálico. Isso pode ocorrer a partir do envolvimento neurológico de uma doença autoimune sistêmica conhecida (por exemplo, doença de Behçet) ou como uma doença neurológica autoimune isolada. Podem ser encontrados autoanticorpos não órgão-específicos (anticorpo antinuclear) e neurais (por exemplo, autoanticorpos de canal de potássio controlados por voltagem). Eles não estão associados ao câncer. A ressonância magnética pode ser normal ou revelar anormalidades no tronco cerebral e o fluido cefalorraquiano é tipicamente inflamatório. Outras causas de encefalite do tronco cerebral devem ser excluídas (por exemplo, infecções). | |||

Autoimmune brainstem encephalitis is an inflammatory immune-mediated disease of the brainstem resulting in subacute symptoms and signs (typically multiple cranial neuropathies) referable to the brainstem. This may occur from neurological involvement of a known systemic autoimmune disorder (e.g. Bechet's disease) or as an isolated autoimmune neurological disease. Accompanying non organ specific (anti-nuclear antibody) and neural autoantibodies (e.g. voltage gated potassium channel autoantibodies) may be found. They are not associated with cancer. MRI may be normal or reveal abnormalities within the brainstem and spinal fluid is typically inflammatory. Other causes of brainstem encephalitis should be excluded (e.g. infections). | |||

Autoimmune brainstem encephalitis is an inflammatory immune-mediated disease of the brainstem resulting in subacute symptoms and signs (typically multiple cranial neuropathies) referable to the brainstem. This may occur from neurological involvement of a known systemic autoimmune disorder (e.g. Bechet's disease) or as an isolated autoimmune neurological disease. Accompanying non organ specific (anti-nuclear antibody) and neural autoantibodies (e.g. voltage gated potassium channel autoantibodies) may be found. They are not associated with cancer. MRI may be normal or reveal abnormalities within the brainstem and spinal fluid is typically inflammatory. Other causes of brainstem encephalitis should be excluded (e.g. infections).
