Overview

The word "sarcoidosis" comes from the Greek word "sarcoid", meaning "one having flesh or tissue," and the Greek suffix "-osis," meaning "condition." which refers to the skin involvement of various body parts.

Historical Perspective

  • In 1877, british physician Jonathan Hutchinson(1828–1913) first described dermatologic manifestations of sarcoidosis as " a case of livid papillary psoriasis" [1].
  • in 1889, Besnier described a patient with lupus pernio(a variant of cutaneous sarcoidosis) [2].
  • in 1899, Caesar Boeck(1845-1917) reported 24 cases of "benign military lupoids"[3]. He observed epithelioid cells with large pale nuclei which resembled sarcoma, and named this condition "multiple benign sarcoid of the skin[4].
  • Christian Heerfordt(1871–1953) was an ophthalmologist who explained uveoparotid fever characterized by anterior uveitis and parotid gland enlargement in 1909.[5].
  • in 1936, swedish dermatologist Jorgen Schaumann(1879–1953), introduced sarcoidosis as a multisystem disease for the first time and called it "lymphogranuloma benigna" to differentiate it from Hodgkin lymphoma[6].
  • in 1939, french dermatologist Lucien-Marie Pautrier(1876–1959) wrote a textbook on sarcoidosis and regarded sarcoidosis as a reticuloendothelial disease[7].
  • in 1941, Ansgar Kveim(1892–1966) observed that intradermal inoculation of sarcoid lymph node tissues in sarcoidosis patients, gave rise to sarcoid papules but injection of tuberculin and Frei antigen did not produce papules and he served to distinguish sarcoidosis from tuberculosis by this test[8].
  • in 1953, Sven Lofgren(1910–1978) did studies on primary pulmonary sarcoidosis and the combination of hilar adenopathy and erythema nodosum became famous as Lofgren syndrome[9]. Lofgren attended the first world congress on sarcoidosis in London in 1958 and proposed a viral cause for sarcoidosis[7].
  • in 1961, Nils Svanborg(1920-1997) published the first monograph about cardiopulmonary function abnormalities in sarcoidosis[10].
  • in 1967, Guy Scadding published Sarcoidosis book and collaborated with Sheila Sherlock on liver biopsy for diagnosis of sarcoidosis[7].
  • in 1984, italian pulmonologist Gianfranco Rizzato established a journal devoted to sarcoidosis and founded WASOG(World Congress of Sarcoidosis and Other Granulomatous Disorders) in 1987.[7].
