NEUROMYELITIS OPTICA SPECTRUM DISORDERS: DIAGNOSIS AND TREATMENT, THE EXPERIENCE OF CLINICAL OBSERVATIONS

https://doi.org/10.24884/1607-4181-2018-25-3-7-13

Abstract

Neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) is an aggregate of inflammatory and autoimmune disorders of the central nervous system characterized by recurrent, disabling clinical course and damages predominantly targeting optic nerves, brain stem and spinal cord. NMOSD is stratified into two types: seropositive for aquaporin-4 antibodies (AQP4-IgG) and seronegative, which is reported in 25 % of cases. This article presents modern conceptualizations of NMOSD and describes authors’ own experience of clinical observation of patients.
