Abstract
Sarcoidosis is a granulomatous disease primarily affecting the lungs and lymph nodes as well as several other systems. By affecting both the central and the peripheral nervous system, it may present with various different neurological features. We report a case with neurosarcoidosis presenting with seizures.
Özet
Sarkoidoz öncelikli olarak akciğer ve lenf nodlarının tutulumu ile giden ve pek çok sistemi etkileyebilen bir granülamatoz hastalıktır. Nörolojik olarak, santral sinir sistemi ve periferik sinir sistemini tutarak farklı tablolarla prezente olabilir . Bu çalışmada epileptik nöbetlerle başvuran ve ileri tetkikler sonucunda nörosarkoidoz tanısı alan bir olgu sunulmuştur.
