ABSTRACT
Sarcoidosis is an inflammatory and granulomatous disease of uncertain etiology that can impact various organ systems and exhibits diverse clinical presentations, which adds to the complexity of disease diagnosis and management. Pathologically, it is distinguished by the presence of noncaseating granulomas within the affected organ system. In this case report, we describe a 34-year-old Caucasian female patient with isolated splenic and possible hepatic involvement of sarcoidosis, presenting with severe abdominal pain. The absence of the typical pulmonary, cutaneous, or joint involvement posed challenges in achieving a definitive diagnosis and determining the appropriate management. Imaging studies revealed hepatic and splenic hypodensities, necessitating consideration of various differential diagnoses, including lymphoproliferative disorders, immunological disorders, environmental particle exposure, infectious causes, neoplasms, and drug reactions. The severity of symptoms in this case required hospital admission for pain and nausea control, biopsy, and eventual splenectomy with pathology that confirmed the diagnosis of splenic sarcoidosis.
