SIMULTANEOUS OCCURRENCE OF SARKOIDOSIS AND MS OR SARKOIDOSIS WITH THE CLINICAL PICTURE OF MULTIPLE-SCLEROSIS

Twelve years following the diagnosis of a histologically proved Sarkoidosis, a patient developed a central paresis of one lower limb. Two years later, tetraparesis, bladder dysfunction, ataxia and an internuclear bilateral ophthalmoplegia occurred. In CSF oligoclonal IgG without dysfunction of the blood brain barrier was found. On the basis of these data multiple sclerosis was diagnosed.
