  • Title: Hemorrhagic sarcoid pleural effusion: A rare entity.
    Author: Jha O, Nair V, Talwar D.
    Journal: Lung India; 2016; 33(5):532-6. PubMed ID: 27625449.
    Abstract:
    Involvement of pleura by sarcoidosis remains a rare manifestation and varies from pleural effusion, pneumothorax, pleural thickening, hydropneumothorax, trapped lung, hemothorax, or chylothorax. Sarcoid pleural effusions presenting as hemorrhagic effusions are even more rare. We report a case of active pulmonary sarcoidosis presenting as hemorrhagic pleural effusion requiring tissue diagnosis to rule out malignancy. The rarity of the presentation prompted us to report this case.
