Abstract
We report a case of a 19-year-old diagnosed with anti-NMDAR encephalitis in relation to an immature ovarian teratoma. Ultimately, chemotherapy resulted in her improvement despite poor performance status. We provide a literature review of the published cases of anti-NMDAR encephalitis caused by immature teratomas and summarize their treatment.
