Anti-N-methyl-d-aspartate receptor (anti-NMDAR) encephalitis is a rare autoimmune and paraneoplastic encephalitis caused by the N-methyl-d-aspartate receptor antibody which is related to tumors, such as teratomas of the ovaries. To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of Anti-NMDAR encephalitis associated with ovarian mucinous cystadenoma.
A 23-year-old woman with a flu-like illness, confused mental status, and behavioral changes presented to the hospital. A right-sided ovarian tumor was detected during the work-up and was suspected to be a teratoma that might have caused the encephalitis. A laparoscopic right salpingo-oophorectomy (RSO) was performed. Histopathological examination revealed a mucinous cystadenoma. She recovered gradually and had complete resolution of symptoms after surgical removal of the mucinous cystadenoma and immunotherapy.
Even though anti-NMDAR encephalitis is caused by ovarian teratoma because it contains various types of tissues, ovarian tumors in anti-NMDAR encephalitis may not be limited to ovarian teratomas.
抗 N-甲基-D-天冬氨酸受体(anti-NMDAR)脑炎是一种罕见的自身免疫性和副肿瘤性脑炎,由 N-甲基-D-天冬氨酸受体抗体引起,与肿瘤有关,如卵巢畸胎瘤。据我们所知,这是首例报道的抗 NMDAR 脑炎与卵巢黏液性囊腺瘤相关的病例。
一名 23 岁女性因流感样疾病、意识混乱和行为改变就诊。在检查过程中发现右侧卵巢肿瘤,怀疑是引起脑炎的畸胎瘤。进行了腹腔镜右侧输卵管卵巢切除术(RSO)。组织病理学检查显示为黏液性囊腺瘤。在黏液性囊腺瘤切除和免疫治疗后,她逐渐恢复,症状完全缓解。
尽管抗 NMDAR 脑炎是由卵巢畸胎瘤引起的,因为它包含各种类型的组织,但抗 NMDAR 脑炎中的卵巢肿瘤可能不仅限于卵巢畸胎瘤。
