Overview
Natural History
- The classic form, accounting for 70-90% of cases, typically follows a monophasic pattern[1][2]. However, multiphasic disease progression (M-ADEM) has also been previously reported[3].
- The lag period between onset to first relapse can vary from 2 months to 8 years[2], with one case showing recurrence after three decades[4].
- Most of M-ADEM patients demonstrate resolution of lesions with no neurological sequelae on long-term clinical and imaging follow-up[5].
- MRI of patients with co-existent M-ADEM and anti-MOG antibodies typically reveal no new lesions in the asymptomatic period[6].
