Severe neuropsychiatric manifestations in mixed connective tissue disease (MCTD) are thought to be quite rare. We report an unusual case of MCTD with recurrent optic neuropathy and transverse myelopathy suggestive of a relapsing-remitting demyelinating disorder. Symptoms responded dramatically to a treatment with plasmapheresis and immunosuppressive medication.
混合性结缔组织病（MCTD）中的严重神经精神表现被认为相当罕见。我们报告了一例不寻常的MCTD病例，该病例反复出现视神经病变和横贯性脊髓病，提示为复发缓解型脱髓鞘疾病。症状对血浆置换和免疫抑制药物治疗反应显著。
