ABSTRACT
Sarcoidosis is a multisystem granulomatous disease of unknown cause that
primarily affects the lung and lymphatic systems of the body (1). Any organ may be affected, including the abdominal organs. As with other forms of
sarcoidosis, abdominal sarcoidosis presents diagnostic, prognostic, and
therapeutic dilemmas. In this chapter, sarcoidosis of the liver and spleen
is reviewed with particular attention given to manifestations, methods of
diagnosis, and treatment options.
