The article presents a 67-year-old male patient with progressive behavioural disturbances as well as cognitive decline. It is mentioned that the patient also reported progressive ataxia and headaches and a craniospinal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for neurosarcoidosis or tuberculosis as was treated with corticosteroid alongwith other antituberculosis drugs. However, later the patient was diagnosed with histiocytic sarcoma (HS) and was given radiotherapy or aggressive chemotherapy.
