Herein, we reported a case of a young man diagnosed with MNOS (anti-myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein associated disease (MOGAD) and anti-N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) encephalitis overlapping syndrome, i.e., MNOS), whose imaging findings in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) mimicked chronic lymphocytic inflammation with pontine perivascular enhancement responsive to steroids (CLIPPERS). This evidence concerns the gene MOG and viral encephalitis.
