Creator Peter Blosser; Padmaja Sudhaka
Affiliation University of Kentucky; Lexington, KY
Subject Demylinating Disease; Optic Neuritis; Neuroimaging
Description Although the majority of patients with neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) present with positive NMO or MOG antibodies (Abs), a distinct subset of patients present without positive antibody testing (1). Diagnosis in these cases requires at least two core clinical characteristics (2). We present a case of presumed bilateral neuroretinitis with delayed onset of area postrema syndrome leading to the diagnosis of NMOSD.
