title: [Coincidence of primary sclerosing cholangitis and sarcoidosis--case report and review of the literature].
abstract: Primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) and sarcoidosis are diseases of unknown etiology which are rarely associated. Here we report the case of a 31-year-old man with PSC and pulmonary sarcoidosis. In addition, we include a brief review on PSC and sarcoidosis, in particular with respect to etiopathogenesis and diagnosis.
