IVIG treatment for repeated hypothermic attacks associated with LGI1 antibody encephalitis

Hypothermia, defined as a core body temperature of <35.0°C (<95.0°F), is a life-threatening and emergency situation. Various conditions and diseases can cause hypothermia, including environmental exposure, drug intoxication, CNS diseases, and metabolic abnormalities, such as hypopituitarism, hypoadrenalism, hypothyroidism, and hypoglycemia.
