Early multidisciplinary intensive-care therapy can improve outcome of severe anti-NMDA-receptor encephalitis presenting with extreme delta brush
Anti-N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor encephalitis (Anti-NMDARE) is a synaptic autoimmune encephalitis syndrome mainly affecting young females. An underlying tumor, most commonly ovarian teratomas in young females, may indicate a paraneoplastic syndrome. Prognostic factors of the clinical course of dis...
