PINZON, Alfredo; ECHEVERRY, Tatiana e RODRIGUEZ, Aida Bibiana. Devic's Disease (Neuromyelitis optica). Acta Med Colomb [online]. 2010, vol.35, n.1, pp.21-25. ISSN 0120-2448.
We present a case report about a young woman initially treated as having multiple sclerosis, who relapsed with serious visual impairment. Devic's disease is a demyelinating disorder that presents as transverse myelitis associated with optic neuritis, typically bilateral. Multiple sclerosis is in fact the main differential diagnosis (Acta Med Colomb 2010; 35: 21-25).
Palavras-chave : neuromyelitis optica; Devic's disease; multiple sclerosis.
