RESUMEN La encefalitis autoinmune por anticuerpos contra el receptor N-metil-D-aspartato (anti-NMDAR) es un desorden mediado por anticuerpos contra antígenos de superficie neuronal, cuyo diagnóstico temprano y tratamiento oportuno mejoran el pronóstico de la enfermedad. Se presentan cuatro casos con e...
ABSTRACT Objective: The conversion of Hashimoto's thyroiditis (HT) to hyperthyroidism due to thyrotropin receptor antibodies is intriguing and considered rare. The contribution of TSH receptor blocking antibodies (TRAb), which may be stimulators (TSAb) or blockers (TBAb), is suspected. We describe clini...
