Paraneoplastic limbic encephalitis as initial presentation of testicular neoplasm: A case report

We report a case of PLE caused by a regressed testicular germ cell tumor in an otherwise healthy young man, who presented with acute-onset confusion, memory impairment and anterograde amnesia. Prompt recognition of PLE is critical as it allows early treatment of both the primary tumor and PLE-related neurologic impairments, which can be severe and irreversible if treatment is delayed.
