摘要
Paraneoplastic limbic encephalitis secondary to a glial tumor is rare, and limited reports on this occurrence have been made in the pediatric population. This case involves a 13-year-old female patient with anti-voltage gated potassium channel (anti-VGKC) limbic encephalitis secondary to a high-grade glioma (HGG) in the suprasellar region. HHGs, associated with anti-VGKC antibodies, are a rare occurrence. This case highlights the need for the inclusion of glial neoplasms in the differential diagnosis for patients presenting with symptoms associated with paraneoplastic encephalitis.
