Here, in Palau de Congressos de Catalunya, our Resident Physicians' Tutor, met our major colleagues who finished Clinical Neurophysiology in Hospital del Mar during 2008-2011 period: Monica Vicente, Nadim Ailouti Caballero, Salvador Amezcua and Jacob Diaz.
Few days ago, Dra Inma Royo de Mingo and Dr Salvador Amezcua
We had the opportunity to talk with them and to open new contacts for this Clinical Neurophysiology Journal Club WEBSITE. Salva, CN Specialist in a Hospital of the lovely Balearic Island of Menorca had the idea to open a new section in our blog to present a monthly interesting case report.

Excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS), Epworth 21/24 of 5 year associated to Paraneoplastic Encephalitis in a 40 year old pacient with orchiectomy for testicular teratoma and drug Resistant Epilepsy, case report in poster presented with 129H/2225 code by Dr Ion Alvarez Guerrico, clinical neurophysiologist of our CN Staff in Hospital del Mar.
In 2004 a comprehensive clinical analysis of 38 patients with anti-Ma2 encephalitis was performed by Dalmau et al and was published in Brain (see here). Overall, 12 patients had clinical evidence of seizures (seven partial complex seizures; five partial complex seizures and generalized tonicclonic seizures). Thirteen patients developed diencephalic dysfunction, 12 with EDS and two of them with cataplexy and hypnagogic hallucinations.
The case presented show the presence of both limbic and diencephalic symptoms with manifestation during a large period of time and the importance of the Clinical Neurophysiology to evidence the clinical manifestations of these injuries wich appear together or before of cancer complications.
