Abstract
The trapped ventricular horn syndrome is characterized by the exclusion of a compartment of the ventricular tract from the rest of the CSF pathways. This syndrome has been reported in a variety of diseases including meningitis, intraventricular haemorrhages and tumours. Only two previous cases of neurosarcoidosis-related trapped temporal horn syndromes have been reported. The authors add a third case of a trapped temporal horn revealing neurosarcoidosis, presenting as a space-occupying process requiring urgent temporal tip lobectomy.
