| Discussion | Anti-MOG antibody encephalitis Brain stereotactic biopsy상 perivascular lymphocytic aggregation로 나왔고 anti-MOG Ab 양성 나옴. 특별한 치료 하지 않고 1달반 후 f/u에서 호전됨. 1. Introduction Myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody (MOG-Ab) associated disease - New spectrum of autoimmune disorders with Abs against the MOG predominantly involving the optic nerve and spinal cord - MOG: a glycoprotein located on the myelin surface 2. Clinical manifestation Optic neuritis (54-61%), myelitis (44-83%), encephalitis Pathologic findings can mimic vasculitis. - Presence of lymphoid cells in vessel walls must be interpreted with caution. 3. Radiologic Findings: Brain Normal in 2/3 of cases Bilateral lesions at onset, fee (<4) lesions Nonspecific T2 high SI foci in supratentorial subcortical or deep WM Rhombencephalitis: subtentorial lesion (1/3) ADEM-like diffuse signal changes in the cortical GM, subcortical/deep WM and deep GM on T2WI and FLAIR - Poorly delineated, subtle multiple patch enhance, “cloud-like” - Scattered linear and nodular enhancement (active lesions) with some restricted diffusion Leptomeningeal enhancement and thalamic lesions were unique. Tumefactive lesion: poorly demarcated lesions and cortical lesions |
