Abstract

Whether a relationship exists between sarcoidosis and lymphoma is controversial. We present 4 patients diagnosed with sarcoidosis either during or after the treatment of lymphoma, review the data surrounding the entity known as "sarcoid-lymphoma syndrome" and discuss the diagnostic pitfalls it can present. As both entities are fluorine-18 fluorodeoxyglucose avid, histologic verification and clinical acumen are needed to avoid misdiagnosis before initiating therapy.
