Abstract
<p> A 74-year-old woman presented to our department with the chief complaints of right visual field narrowing, eye pain, and rapid vision loss. At the first visit, her visual acuity was “hand motion”in the right eye and 1.2 in the left eye. The right eye showed a relative afferent pupillary defect(RAPD). Restricted ocular motility was observed in all directions. No findings other than bilateral cataract were detected. Head fat-suppressed T2-weighted magnetic resonance imaging(MRI)showed swelling and high intensity from the right retrobulbar optic nerve via the chiasm to the optic tract.</p><p> Based on these findings, optic neuritis was suspected, and a steroid pulse therapy(methylprednisolone 1,000 mg for 3 days)was provided. During the progress, anti-myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody(MOG-Ab)was detected in the blood test at the initial visit. It was diagnosed as MOG-Ab-positive optic neuritis and orbital apex syndrome due to the spread of inflammation. After steroid pulse therapy, ocular motility disorder improved rapidly, but visual acuity did not improve; therefore, a second course of the steroid pulse therapy was provided. Head fat-suppressed T2-weighted MRI showed decreased high intensity from the right retrobulbar optic nerve, optic chiasm, and optic tract after the 2nd course of steroid pulse therapy, but visual acuity of the right eye improved only to 0.02.</p><p> MOG-Ab-positive optic neuritis was commonly known to have good visual outcomes; however, it is necessary to consider intractable optic neuritis as in this case.</p>
