“…Clinically, however, less than 20% of patients with sarcoidosis have hepatosplenomegaly and dysfunction of the liver is found in only 4%of patients (1). In most cases liver and spleen involvement was detected casually by multi-imaging (8)(9)(10)(11)(12)), the most frequent described finding is diffuse parenchymal heterogeneity.…”

Wepresent a case of hepatosplenic sarcoidosis. A 51-year-old Japanese male, who was diagnosed to have sarcoidosis 4 years previously, was presented to our hospital because of dry cough and anorexia with weight loss. He had tender hepatosplenomegaly. A dynamic abdominal computed tomography (CT) revealed multiple small low-density areas in both liver and spleen, as well as in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The laparoscopic photographs showed many small whitish nodules surfacing on the liver and several tumorous nodules on the spleen. Multiple imaging modalities including dynamic CT and MRI are valuable for detecting focal hepatic and splenic lesions of sarcoidosis. (Internal Medicine 37: 449-453, 1998)

“…Ocular involvement in sarcoidosis is most often in the form of uveitis. Eales disease is an idiopathic obliterative vasculopathy usually involving the peripheral retina and is not a manifestation of sarcoidosis 1 . Sarcoidosis needs to be distinguished histopathologically from lupus vulgaris and leprosy as they all have epithelioid cell granulomas.…”

“…The lung is the most commonly affected organ, but the skin is frequently involved.Sarcoidosis has been comprehensively defined by Scadding and Mitchell as an idiopathic multisystem disease characterized by formation of non caseating epithelioid cell tubercles in affected tissues or organs 1 . The disease process is generalised, with various manifestations and unpredictable course.…”
