Abstract

Sarcoidosis is a benign systemic disease; its diagnosis is based on a suggestive radiological presentation, and the isolation of an epithelioid and gigantocellular granuloma (EGGC) without caseous necrosis with the elimination of other causes of granuloma. However, sometimes the radiological presentation is atypical and misleading, posing problems in terms of differential diagnosis. In this report, we present a case of pseudotumor sarcoidosis, in which MRI played an essential role in characterizing the lesion and suggesting its benignity. We also discuss the role of MRI in evaluating atypical forms of sarcoidosis.
