Encefalitis anti-NMDA-R secundaria a infección por SARS-CoV-2 Anti–NMDA receptor encephalitis secondary to SARS-CoV-2 infection 2020-10-09 .txt text/plain 1073 73 42 Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), which is caused by infection with the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus and has caused a global pandemic, presents a wide spectrum of manifestations ranging from asymptomaticity to severe infection causing systemic failure and death. We present the case of a patient with anti-N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (anti-NMDAR) encephalitis secondary to SARS-CoV-2 infection. 3 In this case, we suspect that SARS-CoV-2 infection acted as a trigger for the onset of anti-NMDAR encephalitis. 4, 5 Identifying autoimmune phenomena in patients with COVID-19 has enabled us to detect some immune-mediated neurological conditions, such as Guillain-Barré syndrome, acute necrotising encephalitis, myelitis, limbic encephalitis, and multiple cranial neuropathy associated with SARS-CoV-2 infection. [6] [7] [8] This case illustrates the slow clinical progression of a patient with anti-NMDAR encephalitis and COVID-19. To our knowledge, this is the first case of anti-NMDAR encephalitis associated with COVID-19. ./cache/cord-033592-j1c2brb4.txt ./txt/cord-033592-j1c2brb4.txt
