Neurosarcoidosis is a rare disorder in children. We identified 30 pediatric NS cases through a systematic review. Twenty-one (70%) had systemic sarcoidosis with 30% having primary neurosarcoidosis. Eyes (37%), lymph nodes (37%) and lungs (30%) were most commonly involved. Isolated neurosarcoidosis were more likely in children (30%) than in adults (6%, p = 0.0005). Seizures and optic neuritis were also more common in children than adults (33% vs 14%, p = 0.002; and 30% versus 6%, p = 0.008, respectively). Evaluation, imaging, laboratory findings, and treatments are discussed. Additional research, including multi-center studies, is needed.
神经结节病在儿童中较为罕见。我们通过系统回顾确定了 30 例儿科 NS 病例。21 例(70%)存在系统性结节病,其中 30%存在原发性神经结节病。眼睛(37%)、淋巴结(37%)和肺部(30%)最常受累。孤立性神经结节病在儿童中比在成人中更常见(30%比 6%,p=0.0005)。儿童的癫痫发作和视神经炎也比成人更常见(33%比 14%,p=0.002;30%比 6%,p=0.008)。讨论了评估、影像学、实验室发现和治疗。需要开展更多的研究,包括多中心研究。
