Overview
The overall mortality in sarcoidosis is low (about 5%), and many patients with spontaneous regression will never require treatment. Complications include pulmonary hypertension, fatigue, osteoporosis, aspergilloma, arrhythmias, and renal failure.
Natural History
The overall mortality in sarcoidosis is low (about 5%), and many patients with spontaneous regression will never require treatment[1]. In people who need treatment, important differences exist between African-American and white patients. African-American patients with sarcoidosis experience a more severe and systemic disease and 12 times higher mortality [2]
Complications
- SAPH: sarcoidosis-associated pulmonary hypertension[3][4]
- Fatigue[5]
- Osteoporosis[6][7]
- Aspergilloma[8][9][10]
- Ventricular arrhythmias[11]
- Saddle nose defirmity
- Renal failure due to hypercalcemia and/or intersitial nephritis[12]
- Lung fibrosis
Prognosis
- African-American patients with sarcoidosis experience a more severe and systemic disease and 12 times higher mortality [2]
