This article gives a case of PANDAS syndrome in an 11-year-old boy. The
course and clinic of the disease in the form of prolonged sneezing attacks
made it difficult to diagnose this syndrome. Conducting biochemical blood
tests, daily video electroencephalographic monitoring (EEG monitoring) and
magnetic resonance imaging of the brain (MRI) allowed to determine the

necessary to conduct further studies to determine the effectiveness of the
above drugs for this syndrome.
