PANDAS, a series of difficult decisions: a case report
This paper explores the controversies surrounding the PANDAS diagnosis, reviews potential treatments, and discusses the dilemmas of medical decision-making in the setting of severe treatment-resistant symptoms and limited evidence-based guidelines. We hope that this case report will be valuable to healthcare providers facing similar presentations and inspire further investigation into this complex condition.
