Abstract

Myelin Oligodendrocyte Glycoprotein Antibody Disease (MOGAD) represents a demyelinating disorder for which tocilizumab, an anti-IL6 receptor, has been tested to prevent disabling relapses. In a subgroup of patients affected with novel Coronavirus disease (COVID-19), tocilizumab has also increased the survival rate. We present the case of a 31-years-old Caucasian patient who experienced an almost asymptomatic Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) infection during treatment with tocilizumab, which was continued due to the very high risk of relapses of the patient. According to this case, tocilizumab might be not discontinued during COVID-19.
