Paediatric demyelination generally does not develop well on its own, but children with the disease can achieve clinical cure, i.e. the disappearance or basic disappearance of clinical signs and symptoms, with early and aggressive treatment. Pediatric demyelinating disorders are often caused by diseases of a functional nature, mostly genetic in nature, and therefore do not heal on their own, and in severe cases are not even completely curable.
Once detected, children should be treated actively, mostly with medication, and the earlier the treatment, the better the prognosis.
