Overview
Physical Examination
Common physical examination findings of Anti-NMDA encephalitis include:
- tachycardia and hypertension, are signs of autonomic storming in patients.
- orofacial dysostosis reported movement difficulties as a neurologic characteristic of this disease.
- dyskinesias, choreoathetosis, dystonia, oculogyric crises, stiffness, and opisthotonic postures.
- Orofacial dyskinesias are characterized by motions such as chewing, tongue protrusion, lip smacking, and facial grimacing. There are descriptions of more sophisticated, stereotypical movements, such as pelvic thrusting, pseudo-piano playing, and extremity writhing.
