Abstract

Sarcoidosis is a systemic disease characterised by the histopathological finding of non-caseating granulomata. Several large series have found clinical manifestations of nervous system involvement to be present in 5% of cases. Spinal syndromes are reported at clinical presentation in 6% - 28% of patients with neurosarcoid. Intradural, extramedullary masses represent a very rare complication of neurosarcoid and we illustrate the MRI findings for the first time.
