Background: Rare cases of neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) occur with only hypothalamic lesions as the initial lesion, and such cases can present with hypersomnia, endocrinopathy, and autonomic failure. However, orthostatic hypotension (OH) caused by hypothalamic lesions due to NMOSD has not been reported.Case report: We report the case of a patient with NMOSD who presented with severe OH due to hypothalamic lesions.Conclusion: We suggest that clinicians should be aware that NMOSD with hypothalamic lesions can present with OH.
