For a patient with high suspicion for NMDA receptor encephalitis, is there a role for giving rituximab along with methylprednisolone & IVIG (all three together) while the CSF anti-NMDAR antibodies are still pending?
Instead of waiting for the antibody test to result, if you have a high suspicion for NMDAR encephalitis, is there a role for giving rituximab alongside acute immunotherapies?
