 note = {This is a case report of central nervous system sarcoidosis for which magnetic resonance imaging of the brain proved useful for diagnosis. A 39-year-old male was diagnosed as hydrocephalus by computed tomography of the brain in May, 1988. Amnesia occurred in October, 1988, followed by slow speech and gait disturbance in January, 1989. Neurological examination showed disturbed consciousness, nystagmus and truncal ataxia. On magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain, many nodular lesions around the ventricular system became evident in addition to hydrocephalus. Histological examination of pulmonary tissue indicated noncaseating epithelioid cell granuloma. A diagnosis of central nervous system sarcoidosis was confirmed and treatment started with 60 mg/day of prednisolone. Two months later, neurological signs and findings of MRI of the brain showed marked improvement.},
