Abstract:
In 14% of patients with respiratory tract sarcoidosis granulomatous lesions were found in the central nervous system. Clinical classification of neurosarcoidosis was developed which included specific granulomatous forms: CNS arachnoiditis and perivasculitis, sarcoid myositis, as well as nonspecific forms (vasoautonomic dystonic syndrome, angiotrophoneurosis). Diagnostic and therapeutic techniques are presented.
