S. Grand et al., CASE-REPORT - PSEUDOTUMORAL BRAIN LESION AS THE PRESENTING FEATURE OFSARCOIDOSIS, British journal of radiology, 69(819), 1996, pp. 272-275
Sarcoidosis rarely presents as an intracranial mass lesion. We report
the case of a patient presenting a disturbance of cognitive functions
in whom CT and MRI demonstrated a large right fronto-temporal mass les
ion with contrast enhancement and surrounding marked oedema, highly su
ggestive of a brain tumour. The diagnosis of neurosarcoidosis was made
after stereotactic biopsy of the lesion.
