Anti-N-methyl-d-aspartate receptor encephalitis: mimicker of lupus and multiple sclerosis
Reumatismo. 2023 Dec 19;75(4). doi: 10.4081/reumatismo.2023.1598.ABSTRACTAnti-N-methyl-d-aspartate receptor encephalitis (NMDARE) is a B-cell-mediated autoimmune encephalitis with wide non-specific symptoms like acute-onset psychiatric or neurological ones mimicking various other conditions. A careful history and appropriate workup, including cerebrospinal fluid analysis for anti-NMDAR antibodies, imaging, and electroencephalogram, should be conducted, considering all differential diagnoses that can mimic its presentation.

Cancers, Vol. 16, Pages 43: Congenital Tumors & mdash;Magnetic Resonance Imaging Findings with Focus on Rare Tumors
Cancers, Vol. 16, Pages 43: Congenital Tumors—Magnetic Resonance Imaging Findings with Focus on Rare Tumors Cancers doi: 10.3390/cancers16010043 Authors: Kwasniewicz Wieczorek-Pastusiak Romaniuk-Doroszewska Bekiesinska-Figatowska Congenital tumors are rare and, owing to this rarity, there is limited information on many of them. A total of 839 fetal and postnatal MRI studies performed in the first 3 months of life were retrospectively reviewed. They were performed with the use of 1.5 T scanners. Seventy-six tumors were diagnosed based on fetal MRI between 20 and 37 gestational weeks, and 27 were ...

Surgical procedures and plasma exchange for ovarian teratoma-associated anti-N-methyl D-aspartate receptor encephalitis: a case report and review of literature
We reported a case of ovarian teratoma-associated Anti-N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (anti-NMDAR) encephalitis with recurrent epileptic seizures and disturbance of consciousness. Although surgical excision of the tumor remains the established standard of care, unlike other reported cases, the patient exhibited limited response to early oophorocystectomy, as well as IVIG and steroid therapy; however, a favorable response was observed with Plasma exchange (PE) initiated on postoperative day 12. Literature review revealed no definite recommended surgical extent for ovarian teratomas, and outstanding improvement in patients wi...
