- W1935202080 abstract "OBJECTIVE: To report the clinical characteristics, type and frequency of hydrocephalus in aquaporin-4 (AQP4)-IgG seropositive neuromyelitis optica (NMO) spectrum disorders. BACKGROUND: optica (NMO) is an inflammatory demyelinating autoimmune disease of the central nervous system that is characterized by relapsing attacks preferentially involving the optic nerves and spinal cord. The disease-specific autoantibody marker of NMO, NMO-immunoglobulin G (IgG), binds to the extracellular domain of the AQP4 water channel which is concentrated in polarized foot processes of astrocytes at CNS tissue -fluid interfaces (blood-brain and brain-cerebrospinal fluid) and encircling glutamatergic synapses and nodes of Ranvier. DESIGN/METHODS: Obstructive hydrocephalus was identified in the index case. We therefore reviewed, with a study neurologist and neuroradiologist, all available head MRIs from AQP4-IgG-seropositive cases identified in the Mayo Clinic NMO clinical biospecimens database (125 fulfilled NMO diagnostic criteria; 45 had an NMO spectrum disorder). RESULTS: Hydrocephalus was identified in 2 of 177 AQP4-IgG positive patients (frequency 1.1%), in addition to the index case. In all three patients, imaging findings were consistent with obstructive hydrocephalus: third and lateral ventricles were enlarged, and the fourth ventricle and aqueduct were relatively small. CONCLUSIONS: Obstructive hydrocephalus is encountered in NMO spectrum disorders more frequently than observed in the general adult population. This likely reflects the vulnerability of the cerebral aqueduct of Sylvius to stenosis in the setting of immunopathology targeting AQP4-rich periventricular and periependymal tissues.
