1
Three patients with anti-NMDAR encephalitis and MOGAD optic neuritis were presented, highlighting the clinical overlap between these conditions.
-
2
All patients exhibited abnormal MRI findings, including optic nerve enhancement and T2/FLAIR lesions during their encephalitis episodes.
-
3
Each patient tested positive for CSF anti-NMDAR antibodies during encephalitis and had positive serum MOG titers during optic neuritis.
-
4
Treatment varied among patients, including IV steroids, plasma exchange, rituximab, and tocilizumab, with visual acuity improving post-treatment.

The study emphasizes the need for monitoring visual symptoms in patients with anti-NMDAR encephalitis due to potential optic neuritis development.
