How to treat childhood immunoencephalitis

Immunotherapy, symptomatic treatment, and surgical treatment are required for immunoencephalitis in children.
1. Immunotherapy: timely injection of immunoglobulin is needed, which can be used as the first-line immunotherapy for immune encephalitis, aiming at immune regulation. If the effect of the first-line treatment is not good, you can choose to use rituximab, cyclophosphamide, azathioprine and other treatments.
2. Symptomatic treatment: when autoimmune encephalitis causes epilepsy and leads to abnormal body convulsions, anti-epileptic treatments such as phenobarbital and carbamazepine can be used; if there are movement disorders and stiffness of limbs, etc., motor rehabilitation training can be carried out to restore normal function.
3. Surgical treatment: the disease itself does not need surgical treatment, but if it is accompanied by other tumor diseases such as teratoma, surgery is usually recommended to remove the tumor as soon as possible.
The prognosis of children’s immune encephalitis is good after regular treatment, but it cannot be ruled out that the disease may recur again, so it is necessary to closely monitor the recovery of the disease, and the specific treatment should be carried out in accordance with the doctor’s instructions. The above medications should be used in accordance with medical advice.
