[Osseous and pulmonary sarcoidosis in a 12 year old girl. Radiological study (author's transl)]
Abstract
The authors present a rather rare case of sarcoidosis in a 12 year old child. Boney involvement constitutes the first manifestation of the condition, with micro-cystic radiological appearance of the second phalanges of both third fingers. The chest X-ray demonstrated glandular and parenchymatous involvement. The diagnosis was histologically confirmed by osseous biopsy. The authors compare their case with other previously published cases.
