摘要
Three groups of voltage-gated potassium channel (VGKC) antibody-positive patients should be distinguished: patients with antibodies against leucine-rich glioma-inactivated 1 (LGI1), patients with antibodies against contactin-associated protein-like 2 (Caspr2), and patients lacking both of these antibodiesPatients with anti-LGI1 antibodies usually present with typical limbic encephalitis, including alteration of memory and behaviour, spatial disorientation and several types of seizuresPatients with anti-Caspr2 antibodies present with various syndromes that involve the CNS and/or PNS, which mainly consist of cognitive decline, epilepsy and peripheral nerve hyperexcitabilityPatients with antibodies against LGI1 or Caspr2 usually respond well to immunotherapyThe clinical relevance of antibodies against the VGKC complex that lack reactivity against LGI1 and Caspr2 is uncertain; in patients with these antibodies, clinical assessment and ancillary tests prevail for the establishment of a diagnosis and formulation of treatment
