Abstract
Abstract Although myelitis is the second most common presentation in adults with myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG) antibody‐associated disease (MOGAD), studies on MOG‐IgG seroprevalence in patients with myelitis episodes are sparse. Herein, we investigated MOG‐IgG seroprevalence in Korean adults who exhibited myelitis since 2017. Among 151 adults with acute myelitis, 11 (7.3%) tested positive for MOG‐IgG by the initial screening and 10 (6.6%) patients were finally diagnosed with MOGAD during the study period. This study is the first to provide data on MOG‐IgG seroprevalence in adults with myelitis and supports the clinical utility and importance of MOG‐IgG testing in myelitis episodes.
