A 32-year-old man who had experienced fever and a pulsating headache of the right occipital region for a month and a transient left hemianopia and numbness in the left arm two weeks prior to presentation was admitted to our hospital because of a seizure. Fluid-attenuated inversion recovery and diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed high-intensity signals, without reduction of apparent diffusion coefficient value, in the right temporo-occipital cortices. Proton MR spectroscopy (1H-MRS) indicated a decrease in N-acetylaspartate, and single-photon emission CT (SPECT) showed hyperperfusion in the right temporo-occipital territory. An examination of the cerebrospinal fluid showed an elevation of mononuclear cells and the presence of anti-glutamate epsilon2 receptor antibodies. All abnormalities shown by these imaging techniques were normalized in the clinical course. This report suggests that MRI, 1H-MRS and SPECT studies were useful in understanding the pathogenesis of encephalitis associated with glutamate receptor antibodies.
