Sarcoidosis is a diagnosis often made by exclusion. We present a case of what we believe is sarcoidosis presenting as cervical lymphadenopathy. Complicating issues in this patient included B lymphocyte abnormalities, and a positive PPD reaction. The patient continues to be steroid dependent. This case illustrates the difficulties in diagnosis and management of sarcoidosis.
结节病通常是一种通过排除法做出的诊断。我们报告一例我们认为表现为颈部淋巴结病的结节病病例。该患者的复杂问题包括B淋巴细胞异常和PPD反应阳性。患者仍然依赖类固醇治疗。该病例说明了结节病诊断和管理中的困难。
