Autoimmune encephalitis is complex and varied, but it is a curable disease. However, the diagnosis and treatment of children with Autoimmune encephalitis remains challenging. Therefore, we conducted this study to analyze the clinical features, electroencephalogram (EEG) characteristics, treatment and prognosis of autoimmune encephalitis in children with negative and positive anti-N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) antibody.
