Gowri Krishnamoorthy et al. Rheumatol Int. 2012 May.

Abstract

Sarcoidosis is a chronic multisystemic granulomatous disease of unknown etiology. We report a 5-year-old boy with sarcoidosis who had an unusual presentation of membranous nephropathy and Budd-Chiari syndrome. These combinations of features have never reported in pediatric literature so far.
