Journal: Revue Neurologique

Abstract
Neurosarcoidosis is a rare disease that can involve all the nervous system with variable clinical onset and prognosis. The initial therapeutic approach is mainly based on corticosteroids and immunosuppressive agents. Treatment of refractory forms of neurosarcoidosis is not well established and emerging immunomodulating drugs like infliximab have been recently tested. The clinical report of a new case of neurosarcoidosis responding to infliximab is followed by a review of the new therapeutic agents available for the treatment of refractory neurosarcoidosis.
