Abstract:
The occurrence of lymphoid malignancy tissue, most often Hodgkin or non-Hodgkin lymphoma, after several years of the diagnosis of sarcoidosis has been named sarcoidosis-lymphoma syndrome. The pathogenesis of this syndrome is probably connected with dysregulation of T lymphocytes. A woman with acromegaly with non-Hodgkin lymphoma diagnosed six years after sarcoidosis is presented in this paper. The CVP chemotherapy helped to establish 9-years, lasting remission still.
