PURPOSE In people with suspected inflammatory CNS disease, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is commonly analyzed. Antibody-associated limbic encephalitis (ab-LE) and anti-NMDAR-encephalitis are recognized as two major syndromes of autoimmune epilepsies.

In recent years, limbic encephalitis cases with immune-mediated voltage gated potassium channel antibody that respond to immunotherapies have been described. Case reports: We present two male patients aged 45 ...
