Sarcoidosis can affect vision, causing visual field defects like homonymous hemianopia. This case highlights neuro-ophthalmic findings associated with systemic sarcoidosis.

Area of Science:

  • Neuro-ophthalmology
  • Neurology
  • Pulmonology

Background:

  • Sarcoidosis is a multisystem inflammatory disease of unknown cause.
  • Ocular and neurological manifestations of sarcoidosis are well-documented.
  • Sellar and meningeal involvement can present with diverse neurological symptoms.

Observation:

  • A 53-year-old man presented with foggy vision and was diagnosed with right homonymous hemianopia.
  • Neuroimaging revealed sellar region and meningeal enhancement.
  • Standard blood workup did not reveal abnormalities.

Findings:

  • Brain MRI demonstrated extensive enhancement in the sellar region and patchy meningeal enhancement.
  • Automated perimetry confirmed a right homonymous hemianopia.

  • Bronchoscopy ultimately led to the diagnosis of sarcoidosis.
  • Implications:

    • This case underscores the importance of considering sarcoidosis in the differential diagnosis of unexplained visual field defects and sellar/meningeal abnormalities.
    • Early diagnosis and treatment of neurosarcoidosis are crucial to prevent irreversible neurological damage.
    • Multidisciplinary collaboration between neurology, ophthalmology, and pulmonology is essential for optimal patient management.
