SOX1-Positive Encephalitis Presenting as New-Onset Refractory Status Epilepticus (NORSE): A Rare Paraneoplastic Manifestation (P3-8.012)

Here we present a case of a female who presented with new onset refractory status epilepticus (NORSE). On investigation she found out to be suffering from lung carcinoma with no brain metastasis. She had NORSE as a paraneoplastic manifestation secondary to a rare positive SOX1 paraneoplastic antibody whose definitive therapy guidelines are still lacking. We highlight the importance of definitive therapy and need of treating underlying disease for complete recovery.
