title: [Sarcoidosis associated with significant blood hypereosinophilia. Apropos of a case].
abstract: We report the case of a 20-year old girl in whom sarcoidosis (articular, mediastinal, cardiac, lachrymal) and major blood eosinophilia (8,000 eosinophils/mm3) were discovered simultaneously. Clinically, biologically and radiologically, the course of the disease was rapidly favourable without any treatment. After a 13-month follow-up, the patients is now in good health. Since no other cause of blood eosinophilia was found (parasitological and immunological investigations were negative and there were no signs suggesting a myeloproliferative syndrome or a connective tissue disease), we believe that the blood abnormality must have been associated with sarcoidosis.
