| Popis: | Pediatric neuroinflammatory conditions are a complex group of disorders with a wide range of clinical presentations. Patients can present with a combination of focal neurologic deficits, encephalopathy, seizures, movement disorders, or psychiatric manifestations. There are several ways that pediatric neuroinflammatory conditions can be classified, including clinical presentation, pathophysiologic mechanism, and imaging and laboratory findings. In this article, we group these conditions into acquired demyelinating diseases, immune-mediated epilepsies/encephalopathies, primary rheumatologic conditions with central nervous system (CNS) manifestations, CNS vasculitis, and neurodegenerative/genetic conditions with immune-mediated pathophysiology and discuss epidemiology, pathophysiology, clinical presentation, treatment, and prognosis of each disorder. |
