[Sarcoidosis in a joint].
A 59-year-old man suffered intermittently from pain in the right knee joint from 2002 following a jump from a vehicle. In September 2003 the joint was replaced with a prosthesis in a hospital abroad. However, nodes on a chest X-ray and epitheloid cell granulomas found in biopsies revealed an active state of sarcoidosis.
