Sarcoidosis: a Hawaii rarity
Abstract
Sarcoidosis is so rarely seen in residents of Hawaii that it may not be considered as a diagnostic possibility. The differential diagnosis is more complex in Hawaii due to the presence of granulomatous diseases such as tuberculosis and leprosy. We present the first known case of sarcoidosis in a Hawaii resident together with an overview of the disorder.
