DOUBLE-SERONEGATIVE NMOSD PRESENTING AS ALIEN HAND SYNDROME: CASE REPORT
Seronegative neuromyelitis optica spectrum syndrome (NMOSD) can be diagnosed in the presence of key clinical features associated with MRI criteria. We present a clinical case of a male patient who initially manifested a longitudinally extensive transverse myelitis, with a negative autoantibody test; later evolving with corpus callosum lesion and, clinically, with alien hand syndrome (AMS), in association with cognitive deficit. The patient met diagnostic criteria for seronegative NMOSD and showed clinical improvement with immunotherapy.

Abstract:
Seronegative neuromyelitis optica spectrum syndrome (NMOSD) can be diagnosed in the presence of key clinical features associated with MRI criteria. We present a clinical case of a male patient who initially manifested a longitudinally extensive transverse myelitis, with a negative autoantibody test; later evolving with corpus callosum lesion and, clinically, with alien hand syndrome (AMS), in association with cognitive deficit. The patient met diagnostic criteria for seronegative NMOSD and showed clinical improvement with immunotherapy.
