Autoimmune encephalitis associated with antibodies against intracellular antigens in children
In AE associated with Abs against intracellular antigens of children, seizures were the most common clinical manifestation. For patients with seizures without obvious inducement or suspected encephalitis, AE-related Abs should be detected promptly, and immunosuppressive therapy should be administered as early as possible. The prognosis of pediatric patients with encephalitis with Abs differs from that in adults, and most patients recover well after active treatment.
