A 38-year-old emergency medical service Bell 214 male pilot with a dry cough, fever, anorexia, fatigue, and sweating for the past 3 days; an oral temperature of 38 degrees C; blood pressure of 105/65 mm Hg; heart rate of 94 beats/min; respiratory rate of 21 breaths/min; and pulse oximetry of 93% on room air was suspicious for coronavirus disease 2019. Surprisingly, reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction was negative, but bilateral hilar adenopathy was reported in his chest radiography as a new challenge. The pathologic report of the adenopathy biopsy was noncaseating sarcoid-type granulomas. Serologic tests showed a serum angiotensin-converting enzyme level of 58 nmol/mL/min. The bronchoalveolar lavage fluid CD4/CD8 ratio was 3.68. The bronchoalveolar lavage findings provided an accurate sarcoidosis diagnosis, and a high-resolution computed tomographic scan revealed stage 1 pulmonary involvement. Because of the pulmonary involvement, clinical manifestations, use of inhaled fluticasone, and need for longer and accurate follow-up and to protect against coronavirus disease 2019, he has been temporarily suspended until the final assignment.
