Post COVID-19 Myelin Oligodendrocyte Glycoprotein Antibody-Associated Optic Neuritis

Myelin‐oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody‐associated optic neuritis following SARS‐CoV‐2 pneumonia: A case report

“…Finally, the etiological link between SARS‐CoV‐2 infection and CMI response has been considered and supported by several studies. Similar cases have reported the onset of optic neuritis after SARS‐CoV‐2 infection ranging from 2 to 6 weeks and all patients were successfully treated with corticosteroids 1–3 …”

“…Aside from the direct infection of the respiratory system, cases of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS‐CoV‐2)‐related extrapulmonary manifestations are being increasingly reported. Recently, there have been some case reports of optic neuritis following SARS‐CoV‐2 infection; at least, three were found to be related to myelin‐oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody‐associated disease (MOGAD) 1–3 …”

Myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody-associated optic neuritis with COVID-19 infection: A case report and literature review

“…To our best knowledge, there have been nine reported cases of SARS-CoV-2 associated MOG-ON ( Table 1 ). 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 , 6 , 7 , 8 , 9 Eight of nine were newly diagnosed MOG-ON. Only one report was a case with relapsing MOG-ON after COVID-19 infection.…”

“…MOG antibody-associated optic neuritis in COVID-19 infection has been reported by Zhou et al ,[ 6 ] Zoric et al ,[ 10 ] Kugure et al ,[ 12 ] Sawalha et al ,[ 5 ] de Ruijter et al ,[ 14 ] Rojas-Correa et al . [ 19 ]. Table 2 describes the details of all cases of COVID-19-associated optic neuritis.…”

“…Few of them are associated with serum antibodies against myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG). [ 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 ] In this report, we describe the clinical profile and treatment outcome of three patients who developed optic neuritis during recovery from COVID-19 infection.…”
