Background:
Our case explored the spectrum of autoimmune and infectious neurological complications of Coronavirus Disease 2019. In addition, we also reviewed and discussed clinical features, neuroimaging, CSF findings, and outcomes in patients with COVID-19-associated Myelin Oligodendrocyte Glycoprotein Antibody Disorder (MOGAD) CNS inflammatory disorder.
Case presentation:
Here we presented a case of post-Coronavirus Disease 2019 infection Myelin Oligodendrocyte Glycoprotein Antibody Disorder in a 41-year-old male who presented with gait instability, urinary retention, and confusion. Workup done in hospital showed transverse myelitis in cervical spine region and left optic neuritis. Laboratory findings showed Myelin Oligodendrocyte Glycoprotein-IgG antibodies were positive in serum (1:100), suggestive of post-COVID Myelin Oligodendrocyte Glycoprotein Antibody Disorder.
Conclusion:
To our knowledge, this is the first comprehensive case report and the literature review that includes the clinical features, neuroimaging, CSF findings, and outcomes in COVID-19-associated Myelin Oligodendrocyte Glycoprotein Antibody Disorder.
