Neurological Diseases in Children and Adolescents: 2nd Edition

This special issue belongs to the section “Pediatric Neurology & Neurodevelopmental Disorders“.

Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

A growing number of requests for neurological consultations for children and adolescents was observed in the decade before Sars-COV2 pandemics within a broad context, including acute settings (neurological emergencies are life-threatening in up to one third of patients) and chronic/degenerative disorders (increasing knowledge regarding the genetic basis and pathophysiology of several diseases opened new perspectives for the optimization of diagnostic work-ups and the elaboration of novel “precision medicine” therapeutic strategies).

This Special Issue aimed to explore the real-world frontiers for clinicians and neuroscience researchers involved in the study and management of children and adolescents with neurological diseases. Original articles, brief communications, narrative or systematic review articles and case-based reviews (single case reports without a detailed associated review of the literature about the topic of the paper will not be accepted) in all fields of paediatric neurosciences will be taken into consideration for publication.

Prof. Dr. Mario Mastrangelo
Guest Editor
