Sarcoidosis, or Besnier-Boeck-Schaumann disease, is systemic granulomatosis of an unknown etiology characterized by the formation of immune granulomas in the affected organs. The clinical presentation can be very variable [1]. The diagnosis is made on a bundle of clinical, paraclinical and anatomopathological arguments when a biopsy is performed. The most commonly affected organs are the mediastinal lymphatic system, lungs, skin, and eyes. Ocular manifestations of sarcoidosis could take very different forms. We could find it in one in four patients and it may be revealing of sarcoidosis in 19% of cases [1]. All the tunics of the eyeball and the ocular adnexa can be involved.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
