Abstract

Herpes simplex encephalitis (HSE) and anti-N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (anti-NMDAR) encephalitis are associated entities. On the contrary, although both are autoimmune diseases, the association of neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) and anti-NMDAR encephalitis is not well explained. Herein, we present consecutively developed post-herpetic anti-NMDAR encephalitis in a patient with the coexistence of NMOSD and Sjogren syndrome. In our patient evaluation with MRI and clinical findings, the diagnosis of HSE after immunosuppressive drug application for NMOSD was made. Whereupon, HSE triggered NMDAR encephalitis. Many authors demonstrated the induction of anti-NMDAR encephalitis over herpes encephalitis with the presence of movement disorders, psychiatric manifestations, and cognitive dysfunction. In our patient, without biphasic disease activity; the persistence of symptoms, new MRI findings, and the positivity of anti-NMDAR antibody confirmed the anti-NMDAR encephalitis diagnosis. Our patient is a representative case mentioning the importance of close follow-up of a patient in neuroimmunology.

Özet

Herpes simpleks ensefaliti (HSE) ve anti-N-metil-D-aspartat reseptör (anti-NMDAR) ensefaliti birlikteliği bilinen antitelerdir. Ancak her ikisi de otoimmün etiyolojide olmasına rağmen, nöromiyelitis optika spektrum hastalığı (NMOSD) ve anti-NMDAR ensefalitinin ilişkisi iyi açıklanamamıştır. NMOSD ve Sjogren sendromunun bir arada bulunduğu vakamızda ek olarak gelişen post-herpetik anti-NMDAR ensefalitini literature sunmaktayız. Hastamızda NMOSD için immunsupresif ilaç uygulaması sonrası HSE tanısı MRG ve klinik bulgular ile konuldu. Bunun üzerine HSE, NMDAR ensefalitini tetikledi. Birçok yazar, hareket bozuklukları, psikiyatrik belirtiler ve bilişsel işlev bozukluğunun varlığıyla herpes ensefaliti üzerinde anti-NMDAR ensefalitinin indüksiyonunu göstermiştir. Bizim hastamızda bifazik hastalık aktivitesi olmadan; semptomların devamı, yeni MRG bulguları ve anti-NMDAR antikorunun pozitifliği anti-NMDAR ensefaliti tanısını doğruladı. Hastamız nöroimmünolojide hastanın yakın takibinin önemini gösteren bir vakadır.
