Ventral-subpial enhancement in spinal cord sarcoidosis: A braid-like sign

Neurosarcoidosis of the spinal cord is a rare entity that most commonly presents as meningeal disease or longitudinally extensive transverse myelitis.¹ A full comprehension of neurosarcoidosis, as well as establishing the diagnosis, remains a diagnostic and clinical challenge due to the rarity of the condition and limited available data. We describe the first case of neurosarcoidosis presenting as ventral, longitudinally extensive, transverse myelitis with a braid-like enhancement. This report adds a new MRI pattern of the disease that might be helpful in differentiation from myelitis of other etiologies.
