DEVIC'S SYNDROME (NEUROMYELITIS OPTICA) IN MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS

N. N. Bushuyeva, E. S. Stoianova

Odessa, Ukraine

We present a rare variant of multiple sclerosis — Devic's syndrome (neuromyelitis optica). It results in blindness and even lethal outcome in the majority causes. We have described the optimum scheme of examination of patients with suspicion on this disease and their management together with neurologists and neurosurgeons.
