Sarcoidosis is a systemic granulomatous disease of unknown etiology, primarily affecting the lungs and the lymphatic system. Its diagnosis is challenging, and in many cases, it requires histopathological confirmation through the identification of non-caseating granulomas. The presented case illustrates its diagnostic complexity and highlights a rare, delayed complication associated with endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA).

Article Synopsis
- Sarcoid-like reaction (SLR) is an immune response affecting lymph nodes and organs, which doesn't fulfill the criteria for systemic sarcoidosis, and can be associated with certain diseases like Chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL) and Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).
- A 60-year-old male patient with treated CLL developed ALS symptoms following exposure to Venetoclax and Rituximab, presenting with rashes and weakness that progressed over a year.
- Diagnosis complications included atypical signs and symptoms, leading to misdiagnosis of neurosarcoidosis and challenges in treatment, despite initial interventions with prednisolone and infliximab.

Sarcoidosis is a rare, multisystemic disease of unknown etiology, characterized by noncaseating granulomas in various organs. The disease often presents with nonspecific symptoms that complicate the diagnosis. We describe the case of a 31-year-old woman who presented to her family doctor with weight loss, cervical lymphadenopathy, parotid edema, and cutaneous lesions, initially raising suspicion of a lymphoproliferative disorder.

Unlabelled: Sarcoidosis is a multisystemic syndrome characterized by non-caseous granulomatous inflammation, although necrotizing sarcoid granulomatosis is considered part of the spectrum of the disease. Drug induced sarcoidosis-like reaction (DISR) is a systemic granulomatous reaction, which is histopathologically identical to primary sarcoidosis - mostly described after the use of biologics like tumour necrosis factor alpha antagonists but also anti-CD20 (rituximab). The authors present the very rare case of a woman with a primary Sjögren's syndrome (pSS) started on rituximab for disease control, which evolved with a 3-year indolent progressive systemic sarcoid reaction.
