Unfavorable outcome in highly relapsing MOGAD encephalitis

Myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody (MOG-IgG)-associated disorders (MOGAD) manifest with attacks of optic neuritis(ON), transverse myelitis(TM), encephalitis, or combinations [1]. The acute episodes are generally characterized by severe neurologic dysfunction (e.g., severe vision loss, paraplegia, encephalopathy) accompanied by large T2-lesions (usually >2/3 of the optic nerve, longitudinal involvement of spinal cord or multifocal brain involvement) on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) [2,3].
