Clinical and computed tomography findings in intracranial sarcoidosis involving the juxtasellar region.
Two patients with endocrine and visual disturbances had CT evidence of an intra- and suprasellar enhancing mass. Both patients showed clinical improvement following treatment with systemic corticosteroids. In one case, there was no evidence of systemic sarcoidosis; and the exact nature of the juxtasellar lesion was established by surgical biopsy.
