Gastric Involvement of Pulmonary Sarcoidosis

چکیده
Sarcoidosis is a systemic disease involving formation of noncaseating granulomas in any organ. In nearly 90% of sarcoidosis patients, a lesion is found in the lung and/or hilar lymph nodes [1]. Sarcoidosis involving the gastrointestinal (GI) tract is rare. It may occur in any region of the GI tract including the esophagus, stomach, small bowel, colon, and appendix, although the lesion occurs most frequently in the stomach [2]. Here, we report our experience with a 60-year-old woman diagnosed with pulmonary sarcoidosis and gastric sarcoidosis accompanied by enlarged abdominal lymph nodes.
