Restless legs syndrome (RLS) is one of the most common neurological diseases. Even though there is a large progress in its diagnosis, pathophysiology and treatment, it still remains recognised too rarely. It is elderly people who mostly suffer from restless legs syndrome, but it is established that the disease may begin in childhood. The aim of this study is to present the diagnostic criteria and differential diagnosis in cases of this syndrome, in children. Correct diagnosis of restless legs syndrome is a starting point for epidemiological studies on the incidence of RLS in children.
不宁腿综合征（RLS）是最常见的神经系统疾病之一。尽管在其诊断、病理生理学和治疗方面取得了很大进展，但它仍然很少被认识到。大多数患不宁腿综合征的是老年人，但已证实这种疾病可能始于儿童期。本研究的目的是介绍儿童该综合征病例的诊断标准和鉴别诊断。正确诊断不宁腿综合征是儿童RLS发病率流行病学研究的起点。
