Multisystemic Sarcoidosis Revealed by Hepatosplenomegaly: A Case Report.

Sarcoidosis is a systemic granulomatous disease of unknown etiology, characterized by the presence of non-caseating granulomas. Gastrointestinal involvement in sarcoidosis is extremely rare. However, hepatic sarcoidosis occurs in 70% of cases. This is a case report of multisystemic sarcoidosis revealed by hepatosplenomegaly. The patient presented initially with asthenia, anorexia, and weight loss. An abdominal computed tomography scan revealed hepatosplenomegaly and lumbo-aortic adenopathy. During hospitalization, the patient presented an extended erythematous cutaneous lesion in the peri-auricular area. The diagnosis of sarcoidosis was confirmed by salivary, cutaneous, and bronchoscopic biopsy, which revealed the presence of epithelioid granuloma without necrosis. Consequently, the patient was treated with oral corticosteroids with good improvement.
