[Nasosinusal sarcoidosis: 2 cases. A report of 2 cases]
Abstract
Introduction: Nasosinusal sarcoidosis is a rare non caseating granulomatous disease. It may be inaugural, isolated or associated with multisystemic sarcoidosis.
Material and methods: [corrected] We report two cases of nasosinusal sarcoidosis associated to multisystemic sarcoidosis. Both patients were females aged over 43 years. In one case, the primary symptom was a nasal obstruction. Tomodensitometric and guided biopsy findings provided the main diagnostic criteria. Anti-malaric treatment was prescibed in both cases. Stabilisation of the lesions was noted.
Discussion: we tried to reveal through this study the diagnostic an therapeutic difficulties of nasosinusal sarcoidosis.
