Introduction: A potential overlap in symptoms between post-acute COVID-19 syndrome and post-COVID-19 vaccination syndrome has been noted. We report a paired description of patients presenting with similar manifestations involving the central (CNS) or peripheral nervous system (PNS) following SARS-CoV-2 infection or vaccination, suggesting that both may have triggered similar immune-mediated neurological disorders in the presence of anti-idiotype antibodies directed against the ACE2 protein.

Patients And Methods: Four patients exhibited overlapping neurological manifestations following SARS-CoV-2 infection or vaccination: radiculitis, Guillain-Barré syndrome, and MRI-negative myelitis, respectively, sharing positivity for anti-ACE2 antibodies.

Article Synopsis
  • MOGAD can sometimes present as myelitis, even when the spine MRI appears normal, which is uncommon according to some case reports.
  • A specific case is described where the patient had symptoms of myelitis, but their MRI did not show any abnormalities, while they tested positive for anti-MOG-IgG antibodies in their blood.
  • The patient experienced significant recovery after receiving high doses of methylprednisolone treatment.

The phenotypic spectrum of myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG)- IgG-associated disorders (MOGAD) has broadened in the past few years, and atypical phenotypes are increasingly recognized. Isolated seizures and MRI-negative brainstem and cerebellar symptoms or encephalitis have rarely been reported as a feature of MOGAD and represent a diagnostic challenge. Meanwhile, the coexistence of MOG IgG and other CNS autoimmune antibodies is infrequent.

Background: Serum antibodies to myelin-oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG) are biomarkers of MOG-IgG-associated disorder (MOGAD), a demyelinating disease distinct from both multiple sclerosis and aquaporin-4-IgG neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder. The phenotype of MOGAD is broad and includes optic neuritis, transverse myelitis, and acute demyelinating encephalomyelitis. Myelitis is common with MOGAD and typically results in acute and severe disability, although prospects for recovery are often favorable with prompt immunotherapy.
