Description:
Most patients have relapsing attacks (separated by months or years with partial recovery), with usually sequential index episodes of ON and myelitis. A relapsing course is more frequent in women, and nearly 90% of patients are female (typically late middle-aged). More rarely, the disease course is monophasic, with nearly simultaneous index episodes of ON and myelitis. This form may occur in younger individuals with no sex predilection.
