Description |
Neuromyelitis optica spectrum disease (NMOSD) and multiple sclerosis (MS) share clinical presentations including brainstem syndromes. Internuclear ophthalmoplegia (INO) is characterized by paresis of ipsilateral eye adduction in horizontal gaze. It usually corresponds to a lesion in the medial longitudinal fasciculus (MLF) and is commonly seen in MS. However, it is unclear if INO is as common in NMOSD. |
