Liver-test abnormalities in sarcoidosis

Abstract

Liver-test abnormalities were present in 24% of the studied patients; in 15% highly because of hepatic involvement of sarcoidosis. Moderate and severe liver-test abnormalities seemed to be associated with more advanced histopathological disease. Therefore, in the management of sarcoidosis, for patients with moderate or severe liver-test abnormalities a liver biopsy is recommended.
