E-075 neurosarcoidosis presenting as aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage: an interesting case and novel treatment
Neurosarcoidosis, the term used for sarcoidosis involving the central nervous system, represents an uncommon form of sarcoidosis, found in a 5% of patients with systemic sarcoidosis. Clinically evident cerebrovascular involvement in neurosarcoidosis has been reported but appears to be an extremely rare manifestation of neurosarcoidosis. The literature describes these cerebral vasculopathic changes as areas of stenosis and/or vascular irregularity, with clinical manifestations including headache, ischemic stroke, and parenchymal hemorrhage. Neurosarcoidosis has even been described as the etiology for a case of moyamoya synd...

A Rare Neurological Complication of Waldenstroms Macroglobulinemia (P5.183)
Conclusions:Diagnostic approach to bilateral FNP should evaluate for: traumatic (skull fractures), infectious (classically Lyme disease), metabolic (diabetes), autoimmune (sarcoidosis, Guillain-Barré syndrome), congenital (Moebius syndrome) and neoplastic (brainstem tumors) entities. WM is a rare cause, a condition due to low-grade B cell lymphoma where lymphoplasmacytoid cells infiltrate different tissues and secrete monoclonal IgM. Peripheral neuropathy develops in 15–30% of the cases, usually a chronic, progressive, symmetric, predominantly distal polyneuropathy. Facial nerve impairment is unusual, caused b...

Indolent nonendemic central nervous system histoplasmosis presenting as an isolated intramedullary enhancing spinal cord lesion
CONCLUSION: Disseminated histoplasmosis should be considered in granulomatous disease, even if the patient resides in a nonendemic region. Furthermore, clinicians should be mindful that CNS histoplasmosis may present in an atypical fashion.PMID:34513158 | PMC:PMC8422457 | DOI:10.25259/SNI_345_2021
