  • Title: Neuromyelitis optica.
    Author: Feingold RM.
    Journal: J Insur Med; 2008; 40(2):136-40. PubMed ID: 19119594.
    Abstract:
    Neuromyelitis optica (NMO) is an uncommon central nervous system demyelinating disease that produces transverse myelitis and optic neuritis. Although commonly misdiagnosed as multiple sclerosis, a number of features can help differentiate the two entities, including the presence of NMO-IgG. Immunosuppressants are used to treat NMO, but the overall prognosis is poor.
