Five cases of sarcoid presenting as an intracranial tumor are reported. In one instance, the lesion presented as a tumor in the cerebellopontine angle, a site not previously reported for the initial presentation of sarcoid isolated to the central nervous system. The role of computerized tomography, surgery, and steroid therapy is discussed. In the absence of pulmonary involvement, serum angiotensin-converting enzyme levels do not appear to be helpful in predicting steroid response.
本文报告了5例表现为颅内肿瘤的结节病病例。其中1例病变表现为桥小脑角区肿瘤，该部位此前未被报道为孤立于中枢神经系统的结节病的首发部位。文中讨论了计算机断层扫描、手术及类固醇疗法的作用。在无肺部受累的情况下，血清血管紧张素转换酶水平似乎无助于预测类固醇治疗反应。
