AB  - Anti-N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAr) antibody encephalitis is an autoimmune 
      disorder characterized by reduced synaptic activity of the NMDAr due to 
      circulating antibodies that target the NR1 subunit. Few cases of anti-NMDAR 
      encephalitis during pregnancy have been described. The permeation of anti-NR1 
      antibodies through the placenta can be instrumental in the development of 
      complications in newborns. We describe a case of a young woman suffering from 
      anti-NMDAR encephalitis during the first trimester of pregnancy and focus on 
      diagnostic and therapeutic management.
