  CD is a chronic inflammatory small intestinal disease with a prevalence of 1 % induced by gluten and related storage proteins of wheat, barley, and rye. [bmcgastroenterol.biomedcentral.com]

Given the multisystem involvement with significant chest findings, tissue findings of granulomatous disease, and negative workup for other causes of granulomatous inflammation, both cases were diagnosed with active disseminated sarcoidosis, and treated [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Other laboratory workup to rule out the differential causes also came negative. With history of sarcoidosis, symptoms, and lab workup along with the histological findings the diagnosis was confirmed as gastric sarcoidosis. [hindawi.com]

Prior reports on cancer related sarcoidosis are inconsistent in terms of prognosis; while some reports link sarcoidosis with a favorable prognosis, others associate it with recurrence and secondary malignancies. [ascopubs.org]

The overall prognosis is good although most patients will have some permanent organ impairment. Cardiac and pulmonary diseases are the main causes of death. Find Full Text Links for this Article Related Papers [read.qxmd.com]

Prognosis and Patient Counseling. Generally, a good prognosis. Less than 5% of patients die of sarcoidosis, with neurosarcoidosis and cardiac sarcoidosis being the main causes of death. [clinicaladvisor.com]

TREATMENT AND PROGNOSIS The prognosis of sarcoidosis is good in most patients. The majority of patients with acute disease recover completely. Those patients who do have residual damage of affected organs usually have only minimal organ dysfunction. [meddean.luc.edu]

ABSTRACT Sarcoidosis is a multisystemic granulomatous disease of unknown etiology that is based on the presence of non-caseating granulomas. Sarcoidosis commonly involves the lungs, skin, and eyes. [ekjm.org]

Even though it was first described by Sir Jonathan Hutchinson 140 years ago, to date the etiology is unclear [1]. It can involve any organ, with pulmonary involvement being the most common. [hindawi.com]
