Sarcoidosis is generally not considered in the differential diagnosis of solitary pulmonary nodules. We recently encountered a case in which preoperative awareness of this presentation of sarcoidosis allowed a limited pulmonary resection with resultant lower morbidity and potential preservation of lung function to be performed. Although rare, sarcoidosis should be considered in the differential diagnosis of solitary pulmonary nodules.
结节病一般不被纳入孤立性肺结节的鉴别诊断中。我们最近遇到一例病例，术前对这种结节病表现的认识使得能够进行有限的肺切除术，从而降低了发病率，并有可能保留肺功能。尽管罕见，但在孤立性肺结节的鉴别诊断中应考虑结节病。
