Sarcoidosis as pathology of blood, blood-making organs and immune system: from literature data to authors’ observations
Abstract
Sarcoidosis is a disease of unknown nature characterised by formation of non-caseifying epithelioid-cell granuloma in the target affected organs. The International Classification of Diseases, 10th Edition, attributes the sarcoidosis to the class of diseases of blood, blood-making organs and immunological disorders. The authors provide an overview and their own data about clinical manifestations of extrapulmonary sarcoidosis: lymphatic nodes, spleen and bone marrow.
