Unilateral pulmonary changes in the chest X-ray in sarcoidosis. 1981

S J Mesbahi, and P Davies

Unilateral or segmental pulmonary involvement in sarcoidosis is rare. So is unilateral lymphadenopathy, and the combination can cause considerable difficulty in diagnosis if it is present when the patient first attends. Sarcoidosis should be considered in the differential diagnosis of unilateral lung lesions.
