After several biopsy results was shown chronic granulomatous inflammation, the most important differential diagnosis is tuberculosis (TB) and sarcoidosis. Sputum smear, culture, and PCR were performed for tuberculosis. Also, the level of angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) was measured for sarcoidosis. the results ruled out TB and shown a higher level of ACE (ACE = 88 IU/L).After diagnosis treatment started with prednisolone. Now, the patient is in the follow- up. : In hilar lymphadenopathy of lung sarcoidosis is the importance differential diagnosis that should be considered.
