Résumé
Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) can rarely be associated with immunological aetiologies, most notably in Basic CSF findings of 54 adult OCD patients suspected of an organic aetiology were retrospectively compared to a control group of mentally healthy patients ( Elevated protein in the CSF of OCD patients compared to the control group ( While elevated CSF protein is merely a weak indicator of blood CSF barrier dysfunction, the presence of inflammatory CSF changes and novel brain autoantibodies in CSF may indicate OCD subtypes with inflammatory pathomechanism and supports the hypothesis of a rare "autoimmune OCD" subtype.
