“…He developed haemolytic anaemia, haemoglobin 76 %, reticulocytes 23 %, and hypercalcaemia, Removal of the spleen, weighing 430 g and containing sarcoid granulomas was followed by remission of haemolysis. The case reported by West (1959) was thar of a 32 year old woman with a six week history of weakness, dyspnoea and, later, jaundice; the anaemia was of haemolytic type w~th a negative Coom~s test (haemoglobin 6 g, bilirubin 2.9 mg 100 rnl " , reticulocytes 29 .8 % ); biops y of an enlarged paratracheal lymph-node removed by thoracotorny showed sarcoid change s; the spleen, weighing 530 g, wa s removed and it and the liver also showed histological evidence of sarcoidosis; some improvement was ob served du ring seven months' observation after splenectomy. Wyss et al (1967) reported the case of a man aged 35 who had been known to have sarcoidosis involving hilar nodes and lungs for five years, when he developed haemolytic anaemia, the haemoglobin falling to 48 %; direct Coombs test was negative; the spleen was enlarged.…”

“…Wegen der Seltenheit hämo lytischer Anämien bei Sarkoidose und der Probleme, die durch eine gleichzeitige Splenomegalie aufgeworfen werden, soll eine eigene Beobachtung mitgetcilt und zusammen mit 9 Mitteilungen der Literatur diskutiert werden. Ist die Sarkoidose an sich keine häufige Krankheit (in Eng land rechnet man aufgrund radiologischer Reihenuntersuchungen auf 100000 Individuen mit 20-30 Fällen = 0,1-0,3%o) (10), so ist die Sarkoidose der Milz noch viel seltener; nach W est (17) fanden sich unter etwa 1000 Splenektomien, die seit 1930 in Ohio wegen hypersplenischen Syndromen durchgeführt worden waren, nur 6…”
