PearlsMOGAD is among a limited set of pathologies that can acutely and concurrently affect all levels of the CNS. The presence of hyperreflexia can suggest other acute myelopathies over acute flaccid myelitis (AFM). MOGAD can present with dramatic CSF pleocytosis and elevated opening pressure. Oy-stersMRI findings may lag behind symptom development in MOGAD and consider repeating imaging if initially negative.
