| Abstract |
We describe a pediatric case of bilateral optic neuritis (ON) as a feature of anti-N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NDMAR) antibodies encephalitis. ON in children with N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) encephalitis is uncommon. Herein, we present a case with literature review and highlight its possible associations with demyelinating syndromes. |
