Abstract
In this paper on hepatosplenic sarcoidosis the authors confirmed currently accepted concepts and further refined the examination of liver and spleen by selective arteriography of the celiac artery. In addition, they emphasized the frequency of hepatosplenomegaly in sarcoidosis as well as the speckled aspect of the parenchyma of both organs, which appeared dotted with innumerable small lacunae. This appearance was not strictly pathognomonic of sarcoidosis. Cortisone treatment caused reversion to a normal pattern in the patients.Keywords
