A case report details a rare combination of neuroleptospirosis & elevated anti-dipeptidyl-peptidase-like protein 6 (DPPX) antibodies in serum & CSF. The patient, with a history of freshwater exposure, presented with acute neuropsychiatric symptoms. The study underscores the importance of considering neuroleptospirosis in patients with behavioral changes, and the potential association between neuroleptospirosis & autoimmune encephalitis.
