title: Hypothalamic malfunction in cerebral sarcoidosis with abnormalities in temperature regulation and vascular control.
abstract: A case of abnormal temperature and vascular regulation developing in a patient who had suffered from active hypothalamic sarcoidosis 10 years previously is described. His symptoms have responded to therapy with a beta adrenergic blocking agent and he remains well 2 years after the onset of symptoms. The contrast between this case and the previous reports of hypothalamic sarcoidosis affecting temperature control are discussed.
