We report a contactin-associated protein-like 2-antibody (CASPR2-Ab)-positive patient who presented with atypical LE. Diagnoses: CASPR2-Ab-positive LE was the presumed diagnosis. Re-evaluation of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) samples revealed autoantibodies targeting CASPR2 at an immunoglobulin G titer of 1:1. The clinical presentation of subacute onset seizures, abnormal electroencephalography, hypermetabolism on positron emission tomography, good immunotherapy response, and the presence of specific antibodies in serum supports a diagnosis of autoimmune LE. Intervention: The patient received glucocorticoids (1â€...
