    Abstract:
    A peculiar case of neuro-sarcoidosis is reported. Clinical symptoms associated ocular dysfunction, hypopituitarism due to hypothalamic disorders, hypersomnia and alveolar hypoventilation. Dynamic tests have proved hypothalamic involvement. The patient died swiftly and suddenly. Neuropathological examination showed typical granuloma consistent with sarcoidosis mainly distributed to the area of the third ventricle and spread hyperplastic gliosis of pons and medulla.
