Sarcoidosis
Sarcoidosis is an inflammatory disease where granulomas (clumps of immune cells, usually macrophages) form in various organs. This causes organ inflammation.
Doctors believe that sarcoidosis may be caused by an abnormal immune system reaction. This reaction may be stimulated by antigens, such as viruses, bacteria, or chemicals.
Areas of the body commonly affected by sarcoidosis include:
lymph nodes
lungs
eyes
skin
liver
heart
brain
The exact cause of sarcoidosis is unknown.
