RESUMO
Acute necrotizing encephalopathy (ANE) is a rare but distinctive acute encephalopathy with global distribution.It usually begins with a virus-associated febrile illness, which deteriorates rapidly, and leading to convulsion, unconsciousness and even coma.The neuroradiologic features of ANE are multi-focal and symmetrical brain lesions, involving bilateral thalamus.ANE has no specific treatment method at present.The majority of ANE patients are accompanied with varying degrees of neurological sequelae, and even death.In this review, we summarized the epidemiology, diagnosis and prognosis of this rare but fatal disease in children.
