title: Neurosarcoidosis: a review of the rarer manifestations.
abstract: Neurosarcoidosis characteristically presents with the onset of cranial nerve palsies or endocrine and electrolyte disturbances in a patient with known systemic sarcoid. However, the disease may occasionally manifest itself in patients with no evidence of somatic involvement and with a variety of neurological signs and symptoms. We present two cases that demonstrate several of the rare manifestations of the illness and review the literature on the diagnosis and treatment.
