title: [Pathomorphosis of sarcoidosis].
abstract: The results of histological examinations of biopsies from 500 patients are presented. Sarcoidosis was confirmed in 52.8% of cases. During 18 years of observation the proportion of definite histological diagnoses increased from 75% to 90%. The evidence is presented confirming the previous assumption by the author on the pathomorphosis of sarcoidosis. It is suggested that sarcoidosis should not be defined as "morbus sui generis" but as a phenomenon occurring in a peculiar immunological condition of the host under the influence of various agents.
