“…Sokoloff and Bunim (1959) gave detailed reports on five cases, another was published by Ferguson and Paris (1958), and brief reference to two more was made by Kaplan (1960). Our findings are in agreement with those of Sokoloff and Bunim (1959), and like them, we found varying degrees of granulomatous formation, and special investigations revealed no infectious cause.…”

“…Numerous reports exist of patients in whom sarcoidosis has been diagnosed because of the presence of hilar adenopathy , tissue granulomata, and a negative tuberculin skin test (16,17). In most of these cases, serologic testing for histoplasmosis or other infectious granulomatous diseases was not performed.…”

During 2 recent epidemics of histoplasmosis in Indianapolis, 7 patients with hilar adenopathy and joint complaints were identified who were initially considered to have sarcoidosis, but in whom histoplasmosis was ultimately diagnosed on the basis of a positive culture for Histoplasma capsulatum or serologic studies. Articular features were the sole presenting complaints in 3 of these patients. All had arthralgias, which were generalized or confined to the lower extremities and were additive rather than migratory. Only 1 patient had joint swelling. Two had erythema nodosum. In all but 1 patient, the articular symptoms resolved rapidly and completely with minimal therapy. The data emphasize that sarcoidosis is a diagnosis of exclusion and that granulomatous infectious diseases must be excluded in patients with hilar adenopathy and joint disease.In most areas of the United States, when a patient presents with hilar adenopathy and arthritis or arthralgia, sarcoidosis is diagnosed.

“…This suggests that actual tissue involvement may be responsible for many of the symptoms rather than a nonspecific reaction. In only one reported case has synovial biopsy been performed in the acute phase in this syndrome, and this showed only a mild infiltration of mononuclear cells around blood vessels and in the synovial tissue (Ferguson and Paris, 1958).…”
