Overview

Neuroimmunology laboratory under the department of neurology at Amrita Hospital, Kochi is the first of its kind in India- a dedicated comprehensive testing facility for autoimmune neurological disorders under a trained clinical autoimmune neurologist. These disorders can be associated with a cancer (paraneoplastic) as well without cancer association (non-paraneoplastic).    

If properly investigated and diagnosed as an autoimmune neurological syndrome, it becomes potentially treatable and often fully reversible. Here comes the importance of comprehensive neuroimmunology service which can provide an early diagnosis.

Objectives

Our aim is to provide a world class testing facility, define the spectrum of these disorders in our country as well as to disseminate information among the physician community. We are planning to develop a nationwide registry for autoimmune neurological disorders and to develop a bio bank for these disorders in collaborations with physicians and institutions across the country.     

When to suspect autoimmune etiology?

Here is a rough guideline about when to suspect an autoimmune neurological disorder-The clinical presentation can range from encephalitis, seizures, cognitive decline, optic neuritis, stroke like episodes, behavioral symptoms like psychosis, brainstem encephalitis characterized by cranial nerve and pyramidal involvement, ataxia, movement disorders like chorea and myoclonus ,dyskinesias, cerebellar ataxia, myelopathy, plexopathy, radiculopathy, neuropathy, autonomic neuropathy, myopathy and neuromuscular conduction defect-myasthenia.

Though the classical description of VGKC is limbic encephalitis and Moorvan's syndrome, the other presentations like PCD, GI dysmotility, parkinsonism, tremor, chorea, sensory motor neuropathy, hyponatremias, dyssomnia , hyperphagia, facio brachial dystonic seizure, other seizures and presentation mimicking CJD are well described. NMDA receptor antibodies classically associated with Psychiatric features and memory loss, orofacial dyskinesia, choreoathetoid movements, abnormal posturing or increased tone, catatonic state and central hypoventilation.

NMO IgG has expanded the spectrum of NMO to include optic neuritis and myelitis into NMO spectrum of disorder without the classical presentation of eye and spine involvement.     
 

Clinical Features

History

Clinical examination

  • History or family history of cancer
  • Multifocal involvement
  • History or family history of systemic autoimmunity
  • Significant autonomic involvement
  • History of chronic smoking
  • Features of systemic autoimmunity
  • Elderly age group
 
  • History of cachexia, anorexia
    and fever
 
  • Sub acute onset<12 weeks
 

Laboratory

Radiological

  • Inflammatory CSF
  • Limbic encephalitis
  • Elevated CSF protein
  • Longituidinally extensive transverse myelitis
  • OCB
  • Longituidinal signal changes in spinal tracts
  • Markers of systemic autoimmunity
 

 


 

Autoimmune etiology should be strongly sought in all neurological syndromes of unexplained etiology.

Paraneoplastic/autoimmune etiology should be considered in subacute sensory neuronopathy, cerebellar ataxia, limbic encephalitis, opsoclonus/myoclonus, encephalomyelitis, chronic gastrointestinal pseudo-obstruction and Lambert Eaton myasthenic syndrome.

Paraneoplastic antibodies are cancer specific, not disease-specific. Hence we discourage testing for single antibodies in the panel. Sometimes same patient can have multiple antibodies which in fact help us to locate cancer easily.

***Note: Reflex to titer on positives End point titer is performed at an additional charge with the request from your treating consultant.

Purpose of recommendation for Reflex to titer assay in antibody-positive cases

  1. Reflex to titer is a measure of the amount of antibody in Serum and CSF; the higher the titer, the higher the autoantibodies present in the samples.
  2. Reflex-to-titer assay is used in monitoring treatment response in autoantibody-positive patients. Decreasing antibody titer can be associated with therapeutic response, so clinical correlation must be strongly considered.

Overview

Neuroimmunology laboratory under the department of neurology at Amrita Hospital, Kochi is the first of its kind in India- a dedicated comprehensive testing facility for autoimmune neurological disorders under a trained clinical autoimmune neurologist. These disorders can be associated with a cancer (paraneoplastic) as well without cancer association (non-paraneoplastic).    

If properly investigated and diagnosed as an autoimmune neurological syndrome, it becomes potentially treatable and often fully reversible. Here comes the importance of comprehensive neuroimmunology service which can provide an early diagnosis.

Objectives

Our aim is to provide a world class testing facility, define the spectrum of these disorders in our country as well as to disseminate information among the physician community. We are planning to develop a nationwide registry for autoimmune neurological disorders and to develop a bio bank for these disorders in collaborations with physicians and institutions across the country.     

When to suspect autoimmune etiology?

Here is a rough guideline about when to suspect an autoimmune neurological disorder-The clinical presentation can range from encephalitis, seizures, cognitive decline, optic neuritis, stroke like episodes, behavioral symptoms like psychosis, brainstem encephalitis characterized by cranial nerve and pyramidal involvement, ataxia, movement disorders like chorea and myoclonus ,dyskinesias, cerebellar ataxia, myelopathy, plexopathy, radiculopathy, neuropathy, autonomic neuropathy, myopathy and neuromuscular conduction defect-myasthenia.

Though the classical description of VGKC is limbic encephalitis and Moorvan's syndrome, the other presentations like PCD, GI dysmotility, parkinsonism, tremor, chorea, sensory motor neuropathy, hyponatremias, dyssomnia , hyperphagia, facio brachial dystonic seizure, other seizures and presentation mimicking CJD are well described. NMDA receptor antibodies classically associated with Psychiatric features and memory loss, orofacial dyskinesia, choreoathetoid movements, abnormal posturing or increased tone, catatonic state and central hypoventilation.

NMO IgG has expanded the spectrum of NMO to include optic neuritis and myelitis into NMO spectrum of disorder without the classical presentation of eye and spine involvement.     
 

Clinical Features

History

Clinical examination

  • History or family history of cancer
  • Multifocal involvement
  • History or family history of systemic autoimmunity
  • Significant autonomic involvement
  • History of chronic smoking
  • Features of systemic autoimmunity
  • Elderly age group
 
  • History of cachexia, anorexia
    and fever
 
  • Sub acute onset<12 weeks
 

Laboratory

Radiological

  • Inflammatory CSF
  • Limbic encephalitis
  • Elevated CSF protein
  • Longituidinally extensive transverse myelitis
  • OCB
  • Longituidinal signal changes in spinal tracts
  • Markers of systemic autoimmunity
 

 


 

Autoimmune etiology should be strongly sought in all neurological syndromes of unexplained etiology.

Paraneoplastic/autoimmune etiology should be considered in subacute sensory neuronopathy, cerebellar ataxia, limbic encephalitis, opsoclonus/myoclonus, encephalomyelitis, chronic gastrointestinal pseudo-obstruction and Lambert Eaton myasthenic syndrome.

Paraneoplastic antibodies are cancer specific, not disease-specific. Hence we discourage testing for single antibodies in the panel. Sometimes same patient can have multiple antibodies which in fact help us to locate cancer easily.

***Note: Reflex to titer on positives End point titer is performed at an additional charge with the request from your treating consultant.

Purpose of recommendation for Reflex to titer assay in antibody-positive cases

  1. Reflex to titer is a measure of the amount of antibody in Serum and CSF; the higher the titer, the higher the autoantibodies present in the samples.
  2. Reflex-to-titer assay is used in monitoring treatment response in autoantibody-positive patients. Decreasing antibody titer can be associated with therapeutic response, so clinical correlation must be strongly considered.
