摘要
Neurologic symptoms in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) are most often caused by osseous compression, affecting the cervical spine or peripheral neurologic structures. CNS involvement in RA is infrequent, consisting of CNS vasculitis or meningitis with or without meningeal nodules.(1) When meningeal infiltration is seen, symptoms of presentation can include focal neurologic deficits, seizure, cranial nerve dysfunction, or altered consciousness.(1) Here we describe a patient with an unusual presentation of rheumatoid meningitis.
