    Notizen: Abstract Eye movements were studied in 13 patients with Friedreich's ataxia and correlated with MRI findings to investigate whether oculomotor abnormalities can be traced to cerebellar disturbances in this disease. One of the most prominent eye signs was fixation instability (square-wave jerks, SWJ.). Besides SWJ the patients showed various combinations of cerebellar, vestibular and brain-stem oculomotor signs. Our patients did not comprise a homogeneous group with regard to their oculomotor findings. There was no correlation between the severity of any of the so-called cerebellar oculomotor disturbances and the number of SWJ. We tried to correlate the extent of oculomotor disturbances with floccular atrophy and atrophy of the dorsal vermis on MRI in seven of the patients. None of the oculomotor features (including SWJ) correlated with flocculus or dorsal vermis size. Furthermore, floccular and vermal measurements on MRI were normal. Accordingly, we think it unlikely that the oculomotor disturbances, including SWJ, are attributable to cerebellar pathology per se.

    Notizen: Summary Neurosarcoidosis is a well-recognised complication of systemic sarcoidosis but diagnosis may be difficult if there is no clear evidence of an extracerebral manifestation of the disease. We present the case of a 42-year-old woman with clinical features characteristic of cerebral sarcoidosis including tetraparesis, diabetes insipidus, diencephalic hyperphagia, personality changes, and memory loss. Diagnosis was supported by cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) findings and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI): CSF showed mild lymphocytic pleocytosis, intrathecal production of IgG without oligoclonal bands, and a raised level of lysozyme. MRI revealed multiple contrast-enhanced granulomas at the base of the brain with partial involvement of diencephalic and mesencephalic structures and parts of the spinal cord. There was no evidence of systemic manifestation of sarcoidosis. Administration of corticosteroids led to improvement of the symptoms.

    Notizen: Summary The course of a patient suffering from superficial siderosis of the central nervous system for 37 years is presented and diagnostic and therapeutic approaches are evaluated. The syndrome is clinically defined by slowly progressing deafness, cerebellar ataxia, myelopathy and neuropsychological deficits in combination with recurrent xanthochromia of the cerebrospinal fluid with siderophages. The diagnosis may be confirmed by computed tomography, which shows degeneration of the cerebellar vermis, and by magnetic resonance imaging, demonstrating iron deposits on the surface of brain, brain stem and spinal cord. Therapy should seek to identify and remove the source of bleeding, since pharmacotherapy with iron-depleting drugs is of limited effectiveness.
