title: [Sarcoidosis and sarcoid-like granulomas in the liver].
abstract: Based on examination of 2450 liver biopsy specimens it has been shown that different granulomas occur in 4% of all the biopsy specimens. Of these, sarcoid-like granulomas are detectable in 13.5% of cases. Diagnosis of liver sarcoidosis is always based on the clinicomorphological findings with regard to an injury to at least of one more organ or tissue characteristic for such a disease. Sarcoid impairment of the liver is not infrequently coupled with chronic liver disease. The greatest difficulties may occur in differential diagnosis between primary biliary cirrhosis and sarcoidosis.
