Introduction: Sarcoidosis is described as a systemic condition characterized by non-caseating granulomas in multiple organs. In this report, we present an unusual manifestation of cardiac sarcoidosis and review management strategies. Case presentation: A 29-year-old African-American man presented with weight loss, fatigue, dyspnea, palpitations, night sweats, painless left eye redness and bilat...
Sarcoidosis is a multisystemic disease in which inflammatory cells gather and form nodules known as non caseating epithelioid granulomas. The most commonly affected organs are the lungs, the eyes and the skin whereas all the organs can be potentially affected. The disease can develop when genetically susceptible individuals are exposed to environmental agents with antigenic properties. These ca...
The use of gas chromatography and mass spectrometry with selected ion monitoring detected tuberculostearic acid (TBSA) in 10 of 12 formalin fixed, paraffin wax embedded nasopharyngeal and head and neck biopsy specimens from patients with confirmed tuberculosis and carcinoma, and in one of 50 control specimens (giving a sensitivity of 83% and a specificity of 98%). The two false negative cases h...
INTRODUCTION Sarcoidosis is a multisystem disease characterized by the presence of non-caseating granulomas in affected organs. Almost 70% of patients with a sarcoidosis reaction have hepatic involvement. However, evidence-based clinical management or treatment strategies for hepatic sarcoidosis are poorly defined. Here, we present a case of a resected hepatic sarcoidosis patient. Additionally,...
BACKGROUND Pulmonary sarcoidosis is an inflammatory disease, characterized by an accumulation of CD4+ lymphocytes and the formation of non-caseating epithelioid cell granulomas in the lungs. The disease either resolves spontaneously or develops into a chronic disease with fibrosis. The neurotrophins nerve growth factor (NGF), brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and neurotrophin-3 (NT-3) ha...
Abstract Background: Nasal tuberculosis (NTB) is rare, but it can be caused by either a pulmonary disease or a retrograde involvement of the nose by lupus vulgaris of the facial skin. In this study, we present a case of NTB with an ulcerative lesion in her left nasal cavity. Case presentation: A 56 years old woman presented with an ulcerative lesion in her left nasal cavity. The patient exhib...
Sarcoidosis is a multisystem granulomatous disease of unknown etiology. Ocular involvement can be the initial manifestation, occurring by itself, or it can be associated with other systemic signs of sarcoidosis. A 31 years-old caucasian female presented a 10-day history of decreased vision and pain in OS. Biomicroscopy revealed fine keratic precipitates, a mild reaction in the anterior chamber ...
Primary and post-primary tuberculosis (TB) are different diseases caused by the same organism. Primary TB produces systemic immunity. Post-primary TB produces cavities to support massive proliferation of organisms for transmission of infection to new hosts from a person with sufficient immunity to prevent systemic infection. Post-primary, also known as bronchogenic, TB begins in humans as asymp...
