Common Manifestation

AbstractHepatic sarcoidosis is a relatively common manifestation of extrapulmonary sarcoidosis. It occurs in 20 to 30% of cases and is rarely severe. However, a cluster of patients may develop severe complications such as cirrhosis and portal hypertension. In this review, we describe the current knowledge of clinical, biological, pathological, and radiological features of liver involvement in sarcoidosis and discuss essential clues for management and treatment.

Isolated Liver

Hepatic involvement has been reported in 20-30% of patients with systemic sarcoidosis. However, isolated liver involvement is rare. We report a case of cirrhosis with portal hypertension, diagnosed as hepatic sarcoidosis based on high angiotensin-converting enzyme level and presence of multiple non-caseating granulomas in liver histopathology. She improved clinically after treatment with steroid and ursodeoxycholic acid.

Granulomatous Formation

Sarcoidosis is a rare inflammatory disease. It is characterized by granulomatous formation. The liver is the second most common site of involvement after the lung. Sarcoidosis of the liver is usually asymptomatic. Symptomatic cases can present with jaundice, itching, elevated liver enzymes, and in rare situations, the development of portal hypertension. We, at this moment, submit a case of liver sarcoidosis in a patient with liver cirrhosis that presented with upper gastrointestinal bleeding. Upper digestive endoscopy revealed gastric varices. Ultrasonography of the abdomen revealed a liver mass that was suspicious for hepatocellular carcinoma. There is no nay cause of gastric varix in this patient apart from hepatic sarcoidosis (portal hypertension). Treatment of the patient with corticosteroids leads to the complete disappearance of the liver mass. Despite the high incidence of HCC in Egypt due to the high prevalence of HCV infection, it is crucial to search for the rare causes of hepatic masses. Keywords: liver mass; sarcoidosis, gastric varix
