We report a case of ovarian teratoma\u2013associated anti\u2010NMDAR encephalitis in a young woman with concurrent Group A Streptococcus infection presenting with prominent psychiatric symptoms and subsequent neurologic decline.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>We describe the clinical course, diagnostic evaluation, and multidisciplinary management of a 25\u2010year\u2010old African American woman with acute\u2010onset neuropsychiatric symptoms, confirmed anti\u2010NMDAR encephalitis, bilateral ovarian teratomas, and concurrent Group A Streptococcus infection.

Further evaluation following clinical deterioration revealed anti\u2010NMDAR antibodies in the cerebrospinal fluid and bilateral ovarian teratomas on imaging. She was treated with IVIG, high\u2010dose corticosteroids, bilateral ovarian cystectomy, and plasma exchange, with subsequent clinical improvement and discharge after prolonged hospitalization.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This case underscores the importance of considering anti\u2010NMDAR encephalitis in young women presenting with acute psychiatric symptoms and neurologic decline. It also highlights the importance of pelvic imaging for ovarian teratoma and careful infectious evaluation, including for streptococcal infection when clinically indicated. The observed association between Group A Streptococcus infection preceding symptom onset suggests a possible infectious trigger leading to an immunologic response and subsequent anti\u2010NMDAR encephalitis; however, there is limited evidence of a causal relationship in the literature.<\/jats:p>\n
