Abstract: | We present a case of spinal cord sarcoidosis which resembled a disseminated intramedullary tumour. The case is unusual because the spinal cord is only rarely affected by sarcoidosis and the patient developed a neurological deficit as the first manifestation of the disease. This condition thus has to be considered in the differential diagnosis of primary intramedullary tumours, or metastatic disease with involvement of the spinal cord. |
