Annals of Indian Academy of Neurology ¦ Volume 25 ¦ Issue 5 ¦ September-October 2022 946 Sir, Autoimmune encephalitis has recently emerged as a major cause of neurologic morbidity, significantly mediated by anti‐N‐methyl‐D‐aspartate receptor (NMDAR) antibodies. Characteristic clinical features include a combination of neurologic manifestations like seizures, memory disturbances, behavioral abnormalities, and movement disorders.[1] Auto‐antibodies against other proteins like contactin‐associated protein‐like 2 (CASPR2) are also associated with varied clinical presentations like limbic encephalitis, peripheral nerve hyperexcitability, cerebellar ataxia, seizures, and movement disorders.[2]
