Cortisone Treatment of Sarcoidosis

A. S. BOGART USAF (MC); D. D. DANIEL JR. USAF (MC); and K. G. FOSTER USAF (MC)

A case of sarcoidosis with involvement of the eyes, the skin and lungs, treated with cortisone, is presented. Complete resolution of the uveitis and skin nodules occurred. The chest x-ray film revealed marked parenchymal and moderate hilar lymphadenopathy resolution, though complete clearing never was achieved. Eight weeks after completion of steroid therapy, an increase of parenchymal lesions was noted. These results compare with similar recent reports in the literature.
