  • Title: Granulomatous gastritis as a diagnostic problem between sarcoidosis and other granulomatous disorders.
    Author: Tukiainen H, Vaara J, Syrjänen K, Terho EO.
    Journal: Sarcoidosis; 1988 Mar; 5(1):66-7. PubMed ID: 3381022.
    Abstract:
    A 59-year-old man, who suffered from achlorhydria and epigastric pains but was otherwise asymptomatic, was found to have a granulomatous lesion on the gastric mucosa suggesting sarcoidosis or a localized form of Crohn's disease. No sign of involvement of terminal ileum or rectum was detected. A liver biopsy specimen showed slight changes suggestive of granulomatous inflammation, but other signs of generalized sarcoid manifestations were absent. The patient was successfully treated with corticosteroids.
