Neuromyelitis optica associated with myasthenia gravis: characteristic phenotype in Japanese population.

European journal of neurology - 1 Jun 2006

Furukawa Y, Yoshikawa H, Yachie A, Yamada M

Abstract excerpt

We report two female patients with neuromyelitis optica (NMO, Devic's syndrome) following or coincidental with myasthenia gravis (MG). Their illnesses were characterized by subacute myelitis with optic neuritis, high serum levels of muscle acetylcholine receptor antibody, and autoimmune thyroid disease. Both patients fulfilled the clinical criteria of NMO, however, NMO-IgG, autoantibody against aquaporin-4 water...
