ABSTRACT=<p>The clinical diagnosis of patients with autoantibodies directed to conformational myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein MOG-IgG, can be challenging because of atypical clinical presentation. MOG-IgG seropositivity has been reported in several demyelinating diseases, including relapsing opticospinal syndromes [in the neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders (NMOSD) and less frequently, in multiple sclerosis (MS)], but it has rarely been associated with the progressive course of disease. To contribute to the characterization of MOG-related demyelination, we describe the case of a patient with progressive demyelinating opticospinal disease, IgG-oligoclonal bands (OCB), and serum MOG-IgG.</p>
