RESUMO

Descrevemos um caso de uma jovem com um quadro clínico compatível com sarcoidose mas com resultados radioiógicos com imagens nodulares disseminadas o que é pouco provável nesta doença.

O aumento sérico do ECA, a linfocitose do lavado broncoalveolar com uma relação CD4/CD8 de 4,47 e a evolução clínica apoiaram o diagnóstico.

ABSTRACT

We present the case of a young woman with a compatible clinical picture of sarcoidosis. Chest X­ ray with multiple noduls opacities that is not very frequent. The incresed level or serum angiotensin converting enzyme, the increased in Bronchoalveolar lavage lynfocytes with a CD4/CD8 ratio of 4,47 and spontaneous remission makes the diagnosis of sarcoidosis.
