Diversity in anti-N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor encephalitis: case-based evidence
Pinho, J; Rocha, J; Rodrigues, M; Pereira, J; Maré, R; Ferreira, C; Lourenço, E; Beleza, PAntibodies against N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) are identified in the form of immune-mediated encephalitis in which typical manifestations include neuropsychiatric symptoms, seizures, abnormal movements, dysautonomia and hypoventilation. The authors report two cases of anti-NMDAR encephalitis with different presentations and patterns of progression. The first patient presented with status epilepticus a...

Frontal lobe epilepsy
Beleza, P; Pinho, JAbout one-quarter of patients with refractory focal epilepsies have frontal lobe epilepsy (FLE). The typical seizure semiology for FLE includes unilateral clonic, tonic asymmetric or hypermotor seizures. Interictal electroencephalograms (EEG) usually reveal interictal epileptiform discharges and rhythmical midline theta, which has localizing value. The usefulness of ictal EEG recordings is limited by frequent m...

Refractory epilepsy: a clinically oriented review
Beleza, PAbout one third of patients with newly diagnosed epilepsy do not achieve seizure control despite medical therapy and should be assessed in detail to confirm the diagnosis, to determine the epilepsy syndrome and to plan treatment strategy. Refractory epilepsy is established when there is inadequate seizure control despite using potentially effective antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) at tolerable levels for 1-2 years, a...
Giant cell glioblastoma: review of the literature and illustrated case
Valle-Folgueral, JM; Mascarenhas, L; Costa, JA; Vieira, F; Soares-Fernandes, J; Beleza, P; Alegria, CGiant cell glioblastoma is an infrequent variety of glioblastoma (5% of the cases). It has deserved a separate category in the World Health Organization classification of grade IV tumors. The clinical, imaging, histological and immunohistochemical characteristics, and the genetic alterations are reviewed. Treatment and prognosis are discussed and updated. The case of a patient that survived 19 months and died o...
Interictal rhythmical midline theta differentiates frontal from temporal lobe e...
Beleza, P; Bilgin, O; Noachtar, SPURPOSE: We evaluated the role of interictal rhythmical midline theta (RMT) in the identification of frontal lobe epilepsy (FLE) and its differentiation from temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) and nonepileptic controls. METHODS: We included 162 individuals in the study: 54 FLE patients, 54 TLE patients, and 54 nonepileptic controls. Continuous electroencephalographic (EEG)-video monitoring was performed in all indivi...
