ObjectiveTo study the clinical features of children with seizures as core symptoms of neuronal surface antibody syndromes. MethodsThe clinical data of neuronal surface antibody syndromes between December 2015 and December 2016 were obtained and analyzed. All children presented to hospital with seizures as core symptoms. ResultsThere were 1 male and 9 females in this study. The ages ranged from 3 years to 13 years. The disease course was between 3 and 14 days. All children presented to hospital with seizures as core symptoms.Two children had tonic seizures. one had tonic-clonic seizure. Seven had partial seizures. Among them, six children had status epilepticus and cluster attack. The other symptoms in the course of the disease were psychiatric symptoms and extrapyramidal symptoms.The anti-NMDAR antibody were found in 9 patients' CSF and blood. The LGI1 antibody was found in one patients' CSF and blood.The EEG test of 7 patients showed slow wave and sharp slow wave. Two showed spike wave. One showed slow wave.The MRI test of one patient showed abnormal. Ten cases were treated with IVIG and methylprednisolone during acute stage. The patients had been followed up for 3 to 6 months. Eight of them recovered completely. Two cases had seizures. Two cases diagnosed with anti-NMDAR related epilepsy received sound effects after treated with cyclophosphamide. ConclusionsConvulsion may be the first common symptom of neuronal surface antibody syndromes in children. Immune factors should be screened when children with acute seizures and status epilepticus. Accompanying psychiatric symptoms, autoimmune epilepsy should be considered. The most common neuronal surface antibody in children with neuronal surface antibody syndromes is NMDAR antibody. EEG usually shows slow wave and sharp slow wave during seizures. Brain MRI is usually normal. Immunotherapy is effective in the majority of patients as the first line treatment. When the first-line treatment failed, second-line immunotherapy such as cyclophosphamide shock therapy on a regular basis is helpful.
