摘要：

Acute disseminated encephalomyelitis is a demyelinating syndrome that occurs infrequently in children. Various treatment modalities, such as plasmapheresis or steroids or intravenous immunoglobulins (IVIG), have been prescribed, The article describes the results of combined IVIG and high-dose steroids given for 3 days in the treatment of a patient with atypical encephalomyelitis, The results suggest that this approach may be more beneficial than the application of either drug alone.
