Extensive leptomeningeal and intraparenchymatous spinal cord neurosarcoidosis.
This case of neurosarcoidosis of the spinal cord involved several meningeal areas and spinal cord levels. It appears to be the tenth autopsy-documented case of neurosarcoidosis of the spinal cord, though the patient had more extensive spinal cord disease than has been previously reported.
