Preferred Label : Sarcoidosis of lung with sarcoidosis of lymph nodes;
ICD-11 definition : Sarcoidosis of the lung is primarily an interstitial lung disease in which the inflammatory
process involves the alveoli, small bronchi, and small blood vessels. This diagnosis
includes when Intrathoracic nodes are enlarged in 75 to 90% of all patients; usually
this involves the hilar nodes, but the paratracheal nodes are commonly involved. Peripheral
lymphadenopathy is very common, particularly involving the cervical (the most common
head and neck manifestation of the disease), axillary, epitrochlear, and inguinal
nodes.;
