Although not as well-characterised as the seizures associated with LGI1-antibodies, CASPR2-antibody encephalitis is also associated with frequent focal seizures and rare generalised seizures.16 However, we have not observed faciobrachial dystonic seizures and paroxysmal dizziness spells in the CASPR2-antibody patients, whose seizure semiology awaits further characterisation. The gene discussed is CNTNAP2; the disease is viral encephalitis.
