Myelin Oligodendrocyte Glycoprotein Antibody Associated Disease (MOGAD) is an autoimmune disease responsible for demyelination of the central nervous system that can occur in adults or children. Overlapping phenotypes between MOGAD, multiple sclerosis (MS) and neuromyelitis optica spectrum disease (NMOSD) have been described. The diagnostic criteria for MOGAD were proposed by a panel of international experts and published in 2023. Defining clinical, biological and imaging characteristics specific to this entity helps to improve diagnostic specificity. In this article, we present the clinical characteristics suggestive of MOGAD and discuss the importance of the antibody detection method and therapeutic management.
