Abstract: | Whipple's disease confined exclusively to the CNS without systemic involvement appears to be very rare, with only 8 cases reported in the literature. We present here a further case of primary cerebral Whipple's disease in which the neurological symptoms were seen in the absence of systemic involvement and emphasize the importance of diagnosing this treatable disease. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/11499/5584 https://doi.org/10.1080/00365549950163897 |
