ABSTRACT
Neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) is a rare inflammatory demyelinating disease. Anti-aquaporin-4 antibodies serve as a specific biomarker, while other factors including antecedent infection may also play a role in the development of NMOSD. Abnormal cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) findings such as leukocytosis with concentration >50/mm3 are one of the characteristics of NMOSD, but these were not specific for identifying other infective neurological diseases. Here we describe a rare case of NMOSD with CSF findings suggestive of bacterial meningomyelitis.
