Pulmonary involvement, particularly in the form of organizing pneumonia, remains an uncommon manifestation of AQP4-Ab NMOSD.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Case summary<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>We present the case of an 8-year-old girl with AQP4-Ab NMOSD who developed organizing pneumonia concurrent with the onset of her neurological disease. The initial lung injury resolved following immunotherapy, while the subsequent injury improved spontaneously.
