Anti-N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) encephalitis is an autoimmune encephalitis that is a rare complication of ovarian teratoma. The primary treatment is surgical resection of the tumor combined with immunotherapy, however, the pathogenesis of ovarian teratoma associated anti-NMDAR encephalitis is still unclear. In addition, the patients present with various clinical manifestations, with neurological manifestations predominating, which is easy to be misdiagnosed and overlooked, requiring joint diagnosis and treatment by gynecologists and neurologists. This article briefly describes the structure and function of NMDAR, reviews the previous research results on ovarian teratoma associated anti-NMDAR encephalitis, and summarizes the research progress on its pathogenesis, early diagnosis, differential diagnosis, treatment, prognosis and recurrence, aiming to provide theoretical basis and ideas for better diagnosis and treatment of ovarian teratoma associated anti-NMDAR encephalitis. |
