Long‐term seizure outcomes in patients with autoimmune encephalitis: A prospective observational registry study update

Seizure recurrence occurred in a small number of patients and chronic epilepsy occurred in 3.1% of patients during prolonged follow-up. Across all types of AE, risk factors for seizure recurrence were IEDs or seizures captured on EEG in the acute phase; for anti-NMDAR encephalitis, female sex was also a risk factor.
