Objective: To report a series of atypical presentations of Aicardi-Goutières syndrome.

Methods: Clinical, neuroimaging, and genetic data.

[Optic neuritis in juvenile idiopathic arthritis patient].

Optic neuritis (ON) was rarely reported in juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) patients, particularly in those under anti-tumor necrosis factor alpha blockage. However, to our knowledge, the prevalence of ON in JIA population has not been studied. Therefore, 5,793 patients were followed up at our University Hospital and 630 (11%) had JIA.
