Uncommon diagnosis of multinodular goiter - isolated extrapulmonary manifestation of sarcoidosis in thyroid gland (scientific case reports)

CONCLUSION: Sarcoidosis is considered a rare granulomatous multi-locular, systemic disease of not completely known etiopathogenesis with substantial heterogeneity. In most cases, it is associated with the lung, but which can become manifest in various organs. Frequently, extrapulmonary manifestations are usually detected as histological findings by coincidence, which require further investigation to find out additional manifestations as well as to exclude florid infection or other granulomatous processes (clarifying competently differential diagnosis). Therapy is only indicated in symptomatic organ manifestations, taking into account the high rate of spontaneous healing and possible side effects.PMID:38490098 | DOI:10.1016/j.prp.2024.155235
