Glutamate decarboxylase (GAD) enzyme can be a target intracellular antigen in autoimmune focal epilepsy. GAD65 antibody is in found patients diagnosed with drug-refractory temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE). We explore the clinical features of the disease and therapeutic options. We present the cases of four TLE patients, two of them with type 1 diabetes. All of them were drug-resistant and therefore underwent presurgical evaluation, which revealed GAD65 antibody positivity. We discuss the four GAD65 antibody positive temporal lobe epilepsy patients' electroclinical data, the treatments, and their effectiveness. One of them became seizure-free after right anterior temporal lobe resection, two of them did not show significant improvement with immunmodulatory agents, and the fourth patient with the shortest duration of disease had significant improvement in seizure status and normalisation of cognitive status with IVIg therapy. Our cases show that the earlier a GAD65 antibody is detected, the greater the chance of achieving seizure freedom or improvements in both seizure and cognitive status with immunomodulatory agents. However, in some cases, surgery may also bring seizure freedom, but with a risk of cognitive deterioration.
