Résumé

Life Sciences Neurons and Cognition
Abnormal brain MRI has been described in up to 60% of patients with NMO patients. However, white matter T2 hyperintensities have been rarely observed. We report the case of a 49-year-old woman with long-lasting neuromyelitis optica (NMO) spectrum disorder and diffuse cerebral white matter T2-weighted hyperintensities. Our case suggests that some NMO patients can progressively develop l extensive cerebral involvement.
