A 39-year-old lady with relapsing myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody (MOG-IgG) associated disease developed coryzal symptoms, malaise, sweating, and postural dizziness. Six days later she presented with painful progressive right visual loss consistent with optic neuritis. COVID-19 was confirmed by nasopharyngeal swab and MOG-IgG serological reversion was noted. Visual function improved following steroids and plasma exchange. This case highlights a possible causal association between inflammation due to COVID-19 and a relapse of MOG-IgG associated disease. It also highlights the clinical relevance of reporting MOG-IgG titers in MOG-IgG associated disease.
一名39岁患有复发性髓鞘少突胶质细胞糖蛋白抗体(MOG-IgG)相关疾病的女性出现了感冒症状、不适、出汗和体位性头晕。六天后,她出现了与视神经炎相符的进行性右侧视力疼痛减退。通过鼻咽拭子确诊为COVID-19,并注意到MOG-IgG血清学逆转。使用类固醇和血浆置换后视觉功能有所改善。该病例突出了COVID-19引起的炎症与MOG-IgG相关疾病复发之间可能存在的因果关系。它还突出了在MOG-IgG相关疾病中报告MOG-IgG滴度的临床相关性。
