| Abstract: | A 43-year-old man presented with subacute fever, costochondritis, headache, seizures, and amnesia. Brain MRI (figure) showed bilateral temporal lobe hyperintensities. CSF revealed 105 white cells/mm(3) (77% lympho-monocytes), elevated protein, and normal glucose. Infection and paraneoplastic/autoimmune workup was negative. He improved after corticosteroid treatment. |
