Upper respiratory tract (URT) involvement is rare in sarcoidosis. In this descriptive study, we retrospectively evaluated the clinical and demographic features of 12 (2.19%) patients with URT involvement out of the 546 sarcoidosis patients with follow-up visits at our center within the last 40-year period.
Out of the 546 patients, 12 (2.19%) had upper respiratory tract involvement, 5 (0.91%) had laryngeal involvement, 4 (0.73%) had sinonasal tract involvement, 2 (0.36) patients had salivary gland involvement, and 1 patient had tonsillary involvement. The number of stage 0 subjects among other sarcoidosis patients was significantly lower than that among those with URT involvement.
URT involvement is rarely diagnosed in patients with systemic sarcoidosis. The most common site for URT involvement among the Turkish population is the larynx, followed by the sinonasal tract.

结节病累及上呼吸道（URT）的情况较为罕见。在这项描述性研究中，我们回顾性评估了过去40年间在我们中心接受随访的546例结节病患者中12例（2.19%）累及上呼吸道患者的临床和人口统计学特征。
在546例患者中，12例（2.19%）累及上呼吸道，5例（0.91%）累及喉部，4例（0.73%）累及鼻窦道，2例（0.36%）累及唾液腺，1例累及扁桃体。其他结节病患者中0期患者的数量显著低于累及上呼吸道的患者。
系统性结节病患者很少被诊断为累及上呼吸道。在土耳其人群中，上呼吸道受累最常见的部位是喉部，其次是鼻窦道。
