Abstract

Sarcoidosis is a granulomatous inflammatory disease that rarely affects the central nervous system as neurosarcoidosis. Neurosarcoidosis can affect any part of the nervous system causing a wide variety of clinical presentations ranging from seizures to optic neuritis. Here, we highlight rare cases of obstructive hydrocephalus in patients with neurosarcoidosis to make clinicians aware of this potential disease complication.<br />Competing Interests: Declaration of Competing Interest None.<br /> (Copyright © 2023 Elsevier B.V.
