Abstract(s)

Anti-N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor encephalitis may be associated with ovarian teratoma and results in a characteristic syndrome that presents with psychiatric symptoms, rapid decline of the level of consciousness, central hypoventilation and seizures. Immunotherapy and resection of teratoma are effective therapies.
