Neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder with delayed lesion on spinal cord magnetic resonance imaging
View through CrossRef
The term Neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) is a recently proposed for neuromyelitis optica and related syndromes. Along with serum anti-aquaporin 4 antibody status, detection of a lesions extending over ≥3 contiguous spinal cord segments (longitudinally extensive transverse myelitis, LETM) associated with acute myelitis is the most specific neuroimaging characteristic of NMOSD. 1 We present a case of NMOSD with delayed lesion on spinal cord magnetic resonance imaging.
