Abstract
|
|
|
|
With the discovery of anti-aquaporin-4 antibody (AQP4-Ab), several clinical and radiological features beyond optic nerve and spinal cord were described in neuromyelitis optica (NMO). Area postrema syndrome was known to be a characteristic feature of NMO, and the association between posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES) and NMO was reported with the pathogenic role of AQP4-Ab. We report a case of NMO spectrum disorder (NMOSD), initially presented with concurrent area postrema syndrome and PRES-like feature.
