We anaysed post enhanced chest CT scans of 5 pathologically proved sarcoidosis patients attempting to differentiate sarcoidosis from other diseases showing multiple lymph node en-largements. the distribution of intrathoracic lymphadenopathy was diffuse and bilateral in all cases. However the largest nodes were located at subcarinal hilar and right paratracheal group (2R, 4R, 10R) Hilar node involvements were typically bilateral and symmetric. Anterior mediastinal and subcarinal regions which were previously believed in unusual location showed enlareged nodes in all cases. The appearances of the nodes were well-defined homogenous soft tissue mass and the nodes did not show matted appearance, The pulmonary infiltration was bilateral and diffuse retic-ulonodular pattern. Our observations suggest that in cases of homogenous discrete lymph node enlargements. particularly when subcarinal bilateral hilar and right paratracheal node groups are involved sarcoidosis should be included in the differential diagnosis.
