A Case of Sarcoidosis After Lymphoma.

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 F-18-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 performed, revealing the presence of noncaseating epithelioid cell granulomas, leading to the diagnosis of multisystemic sarcoidosis. This case illustrates the sarcoidosis-lymphoma syndrome.
