We describe four patients who experienced optic neuritis (ON) and seizures and were found to have antibodies to myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG) in serum. The index case was a previously healthy 39-year-old man who developed steroid dependent ON and had a generalized seizure when steroids
Vaccination against H1N1 influenza of healthcare workers of has been a standard measure to control the epidemic in many countries. Most side effects are minor and transient. Guillain Barre Syndrome and optic neuritis have been major concerns. We report a case of seizures with retrograde amnesia
Six patients presented with acute, simultaneous, bilateral optic neuritis. Five of the six patients admitted to a recent history of a brief upper respiratory or gastrointestinal illness, presumably viral in nature. Visual acuity was severely reduced in all patients. Five of the six patients also
A 20-year-old female was hospitalized due to generalized seizure two weeks after an infection. She reported disorientation, neck stiffness and weakness in her legs. MRI FLAIR images and T2WI on her first visit to our hospital showed hyperintense lesions in the bilateral cingulate gyrus and the
BACKGROUND
Myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG) localizes on the outermost surface of the myelin sheath and oligodendrocytes in the central nervous system (CNS). Autoantibodies against MOG are reportedly found in patients with spectrum of inflammatory demyelinating diseases of the CNS,
A previously healthy, 10-year-old girl developed left optic neuritis that treated with oral prednisolon (PSL). During the following 8 months, the patient exhibited right optic neuritis 3 days after discontinuation of PSL therapy and three episodes of epileptic seizures 3 weeks after PSL withdrawal

Limbic encephalitis is characterized by rapid onset of working memory deficit, mood changes, and often seizures. The condition has a strong paraneoplastic association, but not all cases are invariably due to tumors.We present a case of limbic encephalitis Optic neuritis (ON) was rarely reported in juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) patients, particularly in those under anti-tumor necrosis factor alpha blockage. However, to our knowledge, the prevalence of ON in JIA population has not been studied. Therefore, 5,793 patients were followed up at our
Anti-N-methyl-d-aspartate receptor (anti-NMDAR) encephalitis, the most recognized type of autoimmune encephalitis, manifests with rapid cognitive decline, psychosis, and seizures that develop in 78-86% of patients. Recently, anti-NMDAR encephalitis was reported in association with
Introduction. Leptomeningeal carcinomatosis occurs in about 5% of cancer patients. Ocular involvement is a common clinical manifestation and often the presenting clinical feature. Materials and Methods. We report the case of a 52-year old lady with optic neuritis as isolated manifestation of
Myelin Oligodendrocyte Glycoprotein (MOG) antibodies-related disease is mainly presented with acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (ADEM), recurrent optic neuritis, and neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders (NMOSDs), however the complete clinical spectrum has not yet been defined. We Myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG) antibodies have a strong association with acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (ADEM) in children, and bilateral and recurrent optic neuritis in children and adults. Recent reports suggest that seizures and encephalopathy may occur in children and adults
This case report deals with a 29 year-old female patient with a prior history of a vestibular syndrome and elapsing optic neuritis that presented paroxystic episodes of painful tonic contractions affecting the right hemibody, especially the upper limb. In the hand the clinical picture was similar to
A subset of patients with neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders are positive for myelin-oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG) antibodies. These patients present with distinct clinical demyelinating syndrome often confused for multiple sclerosis. We describe the case of a patient who initially
