Structural Hippocampal Damage Following Anti-N-Methyl-D-Aspartate Receptor Encephalitis

摘要

BACKGROUND: The majority of patients with anti-N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) encephalitis suffer from persistent memory impairment despite unremarkable routine clinical magnetic resonance imaging. With improved acute care in these patients, neurocognitive impairment represents the major contributor to long-term morbidity and has thus become a focus of attention.
