Cystic bronchiectasis in sarcoidosis
Abstract
Key Clinical Message Pulmonary sarcoidosis can manifest in different radiologic patterns. Typical manifestations in high‐resolution computed tomography are bilateral perihilar lymphadenopathy, micronodules, and fibrotic changes. Atypical manifestations are mass‐like or alveolar opacities, honeycomb‐like cysts, miliary opacities, tracheobronchial involvement, and pleural disease. Cystic bronchiectasis in pulmonary sarcoidosis is rare, with only a few reported cases in the literature. We present another case of cystic bronchiectasis with a honeycomb‐like pattern in pulmonary sarcoidosis and with cardiac involvement. This case was presented as an abstract poster at the American Thoracic Society conference in 2022.
