    Abstract:
    A total of 132 patients with generalized sarcoidosis (GS) who amounted to 2.8% out of 4700 examinees and followed-up patients with respiratory sarcoidosis were studied. The pathomorphological study of biopsy specimens, X-ray functional, and immunological studies are of great importance in the diagnosis of GS. The latter in the examinees was characterized by the most common lesions to the skin, subcutaneous fat, peripheral lymph nodes, liver, spleen, central and peripheral nervous systems and eyes. The combined pathogenetic therapy developed, which involves corticosteroidal hormones and anabolic drugs, immunomodulators, antioxidants and antihypoxants has been shown to be effective in 62% of the patients.
