Anti-N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) encephalitis is a form of autoimmune limbic encephalitis mediated by antibodies against the GluN1 (or NR1) subunit of the NMDAR. It is associated up to 56% with the presence of teratomas. Based on two cases, we analyze the literature that supports the use of oophorectomy when evidence of neoplasia by imaging is lacking.
