Abstract
This case report presents a patient with metastatic malignant melanoma who was treated with immunotherapy with the PD-1 checkpoint inhibitor pembrolizumab and developed a rare neurological immune-related adverse event (irAE) limbic encephalitis. Despite successful treatment of irAE, the neurological deficit persisted. With this article, we would like to make all physicians aware of this rare but serious irAE that can occur at any time during treatment with a checkpoint inhibitor.
