RESUMO

Two patients with lipoid proteinosis are reported in whom paranoid symptoms were the presenting feature. Both had a long standing impairment of memory and bilateral medial temporal lobe calcification demonstrated by CT scan. Possible associations between the anatomical site of these lesions and the neuropsychiatric manifestations are discussed.
