“…Frequently, a primary SjS patient may show interstitial pneumonia [3] on chest X-ray. Recent diagnos tic techniques, such as BAL, may detect even subclinical lung disease [7). As yet, the histopathological alterations of the lung in SjS are poorly documented.…”

“…They found a subclinical alveolar inflammation comprised of T lymphocytes, mainly of the CD4 type, and activated alveolar macrophages in a high proportion of patients with PBC. 16 One of the limitations of that study was the concomitant presence of SS in 7 out of 12 patients with PBC. Since it has been reported that up to 44% of patients with SS have subclinical alveolitis, it was difficult to discriminate the exact etiology.…”

Primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC) is a chronic progressive cholestatic liver disease caused by diffuse inflammation, destruction and fibrosis of the intrahepatic bile ducts, ultimately leading to cirrhosis, portal hypertension and liver failure. The pathogenesis of PBC is incompletely understood, but current data suggest roles for genetic susceptibility and environmental factors. PBC is often thought of as an organ-specific autoimmune disease, which mainly targets the liver; however, lung tissue is also a site for autoimmune involvement of PBC. The pulmonary manifestations of PBC include abnormalities in gas transfer and pulmonary function, subclinical alveolitis, interstitial lung disease, granulomatous lung disease, airway disease, pulmonary hypertension, pulmonary hemorrhage and pleural effusion.

La sarcoïdose est une maladie systémique d’étiologie inconnue. Elle est caractérisée par la présence de lésions granulomateuses, non caséeuses, au niveau des organes atteints. La cirrhose biliaire primitive (CBP) est une hépatopathie cholestatique auto-immune chronique, caractérisée par une destruction des canalicules biliaires et la présence d'anticorps antimitchondries type M2. L'association sarcoïdose et CBP est rare. Nous rapportons un nouveau cas de cette association avec revue de la littérature.
