Article Synopsis
- Anti-N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) encephalitis is a serious autoimmune disorder caused by the immune system attacking NMDA receptors in the brain, and there has been a lack of comprehensive studies on its prevalence and associated factors.
- This study aimed to assess how common anti-NMDAR encephalitis is among patients with certain medical conditions and identify risk factors associated with it.
- The results revealed that about 7% of patients with related medical conditions were affected, with those experiencing a first episode of psychosis or schizophrenia being significantly more at risk.
The fibular free flap is most frequently used for reconstructing the mandible owing to the adequate length of the bone with a reliable blood supply.

However, the reports of post-operative complications at the donor site among pediatric patients are scarce in the literature.
