lüll Typical and atypical manifestations of intrathoracic sarcoidosis Park HJ; Jung JI; Chung MH; Song SW; Kim HL; Baik JH; Han DH; Kim KJ; Lee KYKorean J Radiol 2009[Nov]; 10 (6): 623-31Sarcoidosis is a systemic disorder of unknown cause that is characterized by the presence of noncaseating granulomas. The radiological findings associated with sarcoidosis have been well described. The findings include symmetric, bilateral hilar and paratracheal lymphadenopathy, with or without concomitant parenchymal abnormalities (multiple small nodules in a peribronchovascular distribution along with irregular thickening of the interstitium). However, in 25% to 30% of cases, the radiological findings are atypical and unfamiliar to most radiologists, which cause difficulty for making a correct diagnosis. Many atypical forms of intrathoracic sarcoidosis have been described sporadically. We have collected cases with unusual radiological findings associated with pulmonary sarcoidosis (unilateral or asymmetric lymphadenopathy, necrosis or cavitation, large opacity, ground glass opacity, an airway abnormality and pleural involvement) and describe the typical forms of the disorder as well. The understanding of a wide range of the radiological manifestations of sarcoidosis will be very helpful for making a proper diagnosis.|*Tomography, X-Ray Computed[MESH]|Diagnosis, Differential[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Lymph Nodes/pathology[MESH]|Radiography, Thoracic[MESH]|Sarcoidosis, Pulmonary/*diagnostic imaging/pathology[MESH]|Thoracic Diseases/*diagnostic imaging/pathology[MESH] |
