Anti-NMDAR encephalitis with bilateral basal ganglia MRI lesions at a distance of time: a case report.
Dong Keun SonSeong Min ChoHan Uk RyuByoung-Soo ShinHyun Goo KangPublished in: BMC neurology (2022)
This is the case of anti-NMDAR encephalitis patient whose DWI/ADC images revealed sequential involvement on the left and right basal ganglia with a short time interval. When stroke-like brain lesions on DWI are found in a patient with a focal seizure, a CSF study could help rule out autoimmune encephalitis. We also suggest that DWI/ADC map images may be useful for the early detection of anti-NMDAR encephalitis.
