Long-Term Follow-Up of Non-Paraneoplastic Autoimmune Encephalitis: A Canadian Single-Center Experience
Relapse was not uncommon (46%) for various AIE subtypes in our cohort, particularly within the first 3 years. Our data enforce the importance of long-term follow-up, which in our study allowed for earlier treatment and less severe relapses compared to initial presentation, as well as the need to further explore which patients would benefit from chronic immunotherapy.
