Abstract

Sarcoidosis is an inflammatory multi-system disorder of unknown etiology. 5-7% of patients with systemic sarcoidosis are detected symptoms of central nervous system involvement, soit is called neurosarcoidosis (NS). The most prevalent symptom in about 80% of NS is a cranial neuropathy, especially facial and optic nerves. In NS patients, eighth nerve involvement is found in 1-7%. In this case, we present a female patient who has a sense of numbness in left half of the faceand sudden hearing loss on the same side that responded to the steroid treatment twice in a week,has been diagnosed possible neurosarcoidosis.

Özet

Sarkoidozis nedeni bilinmeyen inflamatuar multisistemik bir hastalıktır. Yaklaşık sistemik sarkoidozisli hastaların %5-7’sinde santral sinir sistemini içeren semptomlar ortaya çıkar ki bu durum nörosarkoidozis (NS) olarak adlandırılır. NS vakalarının yaklaşık %80’inde en sık semptom başta fasiyal ve optik sinir olmak üzere kraniyal nöropatidir. Sekizinci sinir tutulumu ise NS hastalarının %1-7’sinde bulunur. Bu vaka sunumunda sol yüz yarısında uyuşma ve sonrasında bir hafta içinde 2 kez steroid tedavisine yanıt veren aynı taraflı ani işitme kaybı ile karşılaştığımız ve olanaklı nörosarkoidozis tanısı alan kadın hastadan bahsedilecektir.
