Devic Disease With Abnormal Brain Magnetic Resonance Image Findings: The First Portuguese Case

Neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder mimicking extensive leukodystrophy

“…Other cases of brain white matter involvement with symmetrical lesions had been described in NMO-SD but they did not share the diffuse extensive pattern observed in our patient. 7…”

Extensive cerebral white matter involvement in a patient with NMO spectrum disorder

“…If edematous lesions in NMO can be seen extensive symmetrical involvement of the cerebral white matter, as seen in our patient, has been rarely described. 7…”

Expanding the spectrum of neuromyelitis optica: friend or foe?

“…Until recently, MRI brain abnormalities virtually excluded the diagnosis of NMO. It became increasingly apparent, however, that both symptomatic and asymptomatic MRI brain lesions may be seen in NMO [4,19,20 ]. Pittock et al [20 ] found MRI brain lesions in 36 of 60 (60%) patients with NMO.…”
