Paediatric acute disseminated encephalomyelitis followed by optic neuritis: disease course, treatment response and outcome.

Acute disseminated encephalomyelitis followed by optic neuritis is an anti-MOG antibody-associated relapsing disorder that can have a heterogeneous disease course. Patients were refractory for maintenance immunosuppression and appeared to be corticosteroid-dependent. Further international collaborations are now required to unify guidelines in this difficult-to-manage group of patients.
