Overview
Natural History, Complications, and Prognosis
- Prognosis varies with the severity of the neurologic disease. Some patients will not survive the acute illness, and some will be left with neurologic sequelae. Some remarkably recover completely.
- The disease is characteristically monophasic, but descriptions of multiphasic disease have been reported.
- Affected children will often suffer from persistent seizures and behavioral and learning disorders. Adults are somewhat less likely than children to have neurologic sequelae.
