Abstract

The simultaneous disclosure of a lymphoblastic B cell lymphoma and sarcoidosis is reported herein. The initially undiagnosed sarcoidosis leads to discuss the differential diagnosis of a sarcoid-like reaction associated to the lymphoma. The association of sarcoidosis and malignant lymphoproliferative disease is not fortuitous; nevertheless the simultaneity of the two diagnoses, the lymphoblastic type of the lymphoma and the colocalization of granulomatous and lymphomatous lesions in lung and liver are unusual features.
