Meningo-cortical manifestations of myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody-associated disease: Review of a novel clinico-radiographic spectrum
Myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody-associated disease (MOGAD) is an inflammatory demyelinating disease that is distinct from multiple sclerosis. Initial manifestations of MOGAD that were reported in the literature included optic neuritis, myelitis, brainstem demyelination and encephalitis,...

Sumario: | Myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody-associated disease (MOGAD) is an inflammatory demyelinating disease that is distinct from multiple sclerosis. Initial manifestations of MOGAD that were reported in the literature included optic neuritis, myelitis, brainstem demyelination and encephalitis, with emphasis placed on acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (ADEM) as the primary encephalitic presentation. In 2017, however, Ogawa et al. described four patients with seizures, unilateral cortical hyperintensities on brain magnetic resonance imaging T2-fluid-attenuated inversion recovery sequences, and anti-MOG positivity, indicating a potentially novel form of encephalitis in MOGAD. In 2019, we systematically reviewed the literature to better characterize this unique syndrome, which we referred to as unilateral cortical FLAIR-hyperintense Lesions in Anti-MOG-associated Encephalitis with Seizures (FLAMES). Subsequently, anti-MOG positivity in patients with a variety of cortical and meningeal disease presentations has been reported, indicating a broader spectrum of meningo-cortical manifestations in MOGAD that we review herein. |
