Syndromes (e.g. Limbic Encephalitis)

Syndromes like Limbic Encephalitis are conditions where the body's immune system mistakenly attacks parts of the brain, particularly the limbic system, which is involved in memory, emotions, and behavior. This causes symptoms such as memory loss, confusion, seizures, and emotional changes. These syndromes can be triggered by cancers or infections and often require prompt diagnosis and treatment with medications to reduce immune system attack. Recognizing these syndromes is essential because they are treatable, and early intervention can improve outcomes and restore neurological function.
