Abstract

NMDAR-Abs were detected in approximately 30% of polymerase chain reaction-positive herpes simplex encephalitis patients without tumors,[1] suggesting that the virus may have triggered CNS injury or autoimmunity by inducing production of the NMDAR-Abs. Clear description of atypical cases is crucial: accurate recognition of these conditions will enable prompt testing for Abs and help in diagnosing overlapping NMDAR-Ab and MOG-Ab-associated disease.
