Abstract

Sarcoidosis is an inflammatory multisystem disorder, affecting many systems such as lung, lymph nodes, skin and eye involvement. Nervous system involvement is often seen in 5-15% of patients with systemic sarcoidosis in the first two years. Preceding to systemic involvement the initial symptom as neurological complaints has been rarely reported. Lacking of any specific, clinical and / or radiological findings for neurosarcoidosis in these cases, it could be difficult to make an accurate diagnosis and histopathological evaluation may be required. Due to rarity and complexity diagnosis of the neurosarcoidosis, in this study, clinical, radiological and / or histopathological features, treatment modalities of the 7 neurosarcoidosis patients to be presented with detailed investigations of different neurological symptoms were evaluated.

Özet

Sarkoidoz akciğer, lenf nodları, cilt ve göz tutulumu gibi birçok organ veya sistemi etkileyen inflamatuar multisistemik bir hastalıktır. Sarkoidoz olgularında %5-15 sıklıkta ilk 2 yıl içinde sinir sistemi tutulumu görülebilmektedir. Öncesinde sarkoidoz tanısı olmayan ve ilk kez nörolojik semptomatoloji ile prezente olan olgular nadir de olsa bildirilmektedir. Ancak bu olgularda nörosarkoidoza özgü klinik ve/veya radyolojik bulgu olmadığından tanı koymak güç olmakta ve sıklıkla histopatolojik değerlendirme gerekmektedir. Bu çalışmada nadir görülmesi ve tanı karmaşasına yolaçabilmesi nedeniyle kliniğimize farklı nörolojik yakınmalarla başvuran ve ayrıntılı incelemeler sonucunda nörosarkoidoz tanısı almış 7 olgunun klinik, radyolojik ve/veya histopatolojik özellikleri ile tedavi yaklaşımları değerlendirilmiştir
