title: [Steroid treatment of neurosarcoidosis].
abstract: In cases of simple cranial neuropathy, observation of the course of recovery is sufficient since the majority of cases heal spontaneously. However, in cases of multiple cranial neuropathy, symptoms are sometimes severe, and it may become necessary to administer steroids. This applies to spinal neurosarcoidosis. The symptoms of central nervous system sarcoidosis are usually severe and many cases are intractable, and steroid therapy is always indicated in such cases.
