Abstract

Sarcoidosis is an inflammatory multisystem disorder, usually involving the lung, the skin, the lymph nodes, and the eyes. The prevalence of clinical involvement of the nervous system is estimated to be about 5% to 15% [1]. Both central and peripheral nervous system can be affected. Sarcoid polyneuropathy is a rare and clinically heterogeneous disorder that may be the initial presentation of sarcoidosis [2]. Only a few cases have been reported of chronic demyelinating inflammatory polyradiculoneuropathy (CIDP) associated with sarcoidosis. We report a clinical course of a patient presented with a sensorimotor demyelinating polyneuropathy with secondary axonal loss few years after being diagnosed with lung sarcoidosis.
