Neurologic emergencies may occur in children and generate a significant differential diagnosis of potentially life-threatening etiologies. This chapter reviews the most common and/or important neurological emergencies, including febrile seizures, first presentation of afebrile seizures, seizure variants, breakthrough seizures in epilepsy, seizures due to toxic ingestion, status epilepticus, altered mental status, headache, migraine syndromes, encephalitis, acute demyelinating encephalomyelitis, acute cerebellar ataxia, anti-NMDA receptor encephalitis, motor dysfunction/weakness syndromes such as Guillain-Barre syndrome, polyneuropathies, transverse myelitis, acute periodic paralysis, acute flaccid myelitis, and neuromuscular disorders such as botulism, myasthenia gravis. The common presentations, atypical presentations, evaluation, disposition, clinical pearls, and pitfalls of these important pediatric neurologic emergencies are discussed.
