A Case of Sarcoidosis After Lymphoma

Abstract: We report the case of a 62-year-old woman with previous history of stage III Hodgkin lymphoma. Routine follow-up CT scan revealed 2 years after end of treatment the appearance of mediastinal nodes, suspected of lymphoma recurrence. An 18F-FDG PET/CT was performed showing hypermetabolic mediastinal lymph nodes with diffuse symmetric osteomedullar hypermetabolism of pelvis and scapulae. In the hypothesis of either recurrence or multisystemic inflammatory disorder, bone marrow and lymph node biopsies were perform… Show more

“…Semiquantitative measurements such as the maximum standardized uptake value (SUVmax) have not proven to be the answer either (2,3). Moreover, sarcoidosis can develop before (sarcoidosis-lymphoma syndrome) and after lymphoma, and immunotherapy-induced sarcoidlike reactions are increasingly observed (4)(5)(6)(7). No matter the results of the imaging studies, pathological confirmation of the disease is mandatory in all cases prior to initiating treatment.…”
