Abstrakt:	Anti-NMDA receptor encephalitis is an autoimmune disease with psychiatric and cognitive symptoms. Our aim is to describe the cognitive follow-up of a patient diagnosed with the disease for 4 years. The results revealed severe cognitive impairment at the initial evaluation. At 3 months, memory and executive function deficits prevailed. At 9 months, only a deficit in verbal memory was found. At 4 years, she presented a mild memory deficit. These results revealed a significant short-term cognitive deficit. Subsequently, executive functions, memory and verbal fluency recovered, while a mild deficit in verbal memory persisted.
