Abstract

Patients with neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) coexisting with both Sjögren's syndrome (SS) and pancytopenia are exceptionally rare. There is no study on the treatment of such patients. We presented a case of AQP4-IgG seropositive refractory NMOSD patient combined with SS and pancytopenia with significant response to inebilizumab. In 2017 the 49-year-old female patient was diagnosed with SS and pancytopenia without any treatment. In August 2022, she had a sudden onset of lower limbs weakness, manifested as inability to walk, accompanied by urinary incontinence. After receiving methylprednisolone and cyclophosphamide, she regained the ability to walk. In February 2023, she suffered from weakness of both lower limbs again and paralyzed in bed, accompanied by retention of urine and stool, and loss of vision in both eyes. After receiving methylprednisolone and three plasmapheresis, the condition did not further worsen, but there was no remission. In March 2023, the patient was admitted to our hospital and was formally diagnosed with AQP4-IgG seropositive NMOSD combined with SS and pancytopenia. After receiving two 300 mg injections of inebilizumab, not only the symptoms of NMOSD improved significantly, but also the symptoms of concurrent SS and pancytopenia. In the cases of AQP4-IgG seropositive NMOSD who have recurrent episodes and are comorbid with other autoimmune disorders, inebilizumab may be a good choice.

摘要

视神经脊髓炎谱系障碍(NMOSD)合并干燥综合征(SS)和全血细胞减少的患者极为罕见。目前尚无针对此类患者治疗的研究。我们报告了一例水通道蛋白4免疫球蛋白G(AQP4-IgG)血清学阳性的难治性NMOSD患者,其合并SS和全血细胞减少,使用依奈西umab治疗后有显著反应。2017年,该49岁女性患者被诊断为SS和全血细胞减少,未接受任何治疗。2022年8月,她突然出现下肢无力,表现为无法行走,并伴有尿失禁。接受甲泼尼龙和环磷酰胺治疗后,她恢复了行走能力。2023年2月,她再次出现双下肢无力,卧床瘫痪,伴有大小便潴留和双眼失明。接受甲泼尼龙和三次血浆置换后,病情未进一步恶化,但未缓解。2023年3月,患者入住我院,被正式诊断为AQP4-IgG血清学阳性的NMOSD合并SS和全血细胞减少。在接受两次300mg依奈西umab注射后,不仅NMOSD症状显著改善,同时合并的SS和全血细胞减少症状也得到改善。对于有复发发作且合并其他自身免疫性疾病的AQP4-IgG血清学阳性NMOSD病例,依奈西umab可能是一个不错的选择。
