Anti-IgLON5-syndrome is known to be an antibody-mediated disease that mainly affects central structures in tegmentum and hippocampus and leads to associated symptoms like sleep-related disturbances, parkinsonism, chorea and limb ataxia. This is the first case of a patient with anti-IgLON5-syndrome and generalized fasciculations and neuromyotonic discharges in electromyography, suggesting that a peripheral involvement may occur in anti-Ig-Lon5-syndromes.
抗 IgLON5 综合征是一种已知的抗体介导疾病,主要影响中脑和海马的被盖结构,并导致相关症状,如睡眠相关障碍、帕金森病、舞蹈症和肢体共济失调。这是首例抗 IgLON5 综合征患者伴发全身性肌束震颤和肌电图中的肌强直性放电,提示抗 Ig-Lon5 综合征可能发生外周受累。
