Gyermekneurológiai kórképek: a jóindulatú paroxysmalis jelenségektől a súlyos cerebralis paresisig

Abstract

Paediatric neurology is one of the most far-reaching and interesting fields of medicine. It deals with newborns, infants, children, and adolescents requiring acute, intensive or chronic care, and this is what makes it challenging. Paediatricians, paediatric neurologists usually ask the age of their patients first, because certain diseases only occur at a specific age. For example, West syndrome does not manifest in the adolescent age, while juvenile myoclonic epilepsy does not begin in infancy. Nevertheless, self-limited benign disorders appear only at a specific age, but similar signs or symptoms could refer to severe neurological diseases. During my research, I have focused on three seemingly separate, but strongly connected parts of paediatric neurology.
