Sarcoidosis gets its name from the Greek words "Sarco" meaning flesh, "Eidos" meaning like, and "Sis" meaning conditions. It's a rare condition that occurs when a group of cells in the immune system forms red and swollen lumps called granulomas in various organs in the body. The lungs are usually the most commonly affected organ. Sarcoidosis is more prevalent in Americans, Africans, and Scandinavians. It can affect any organ in the body. The condition was first identified by Besnier et al. in 1889. It typically affects people between the ages of 25 and 40, with 70% of cases occurring within this age range. The prevalence of sarcoidosis in India is unknown, but Kolkata and Delhi hospitals have reported annual rates of 10-12 cases per 1000 and 61.2 patients per lakh new registrations respectively. Patients with sarcoidosis generally exhibit general symptoms, while 30-35% of patients experience severe inflammatory reactions and respiratory problems. Bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) changes the understanding of the inflammatory response of the lungs in sarcoidosis. This review focuses on the prevention, treatment, prognosis, epidemiology, and clinical manifestation of sarcoidosis.
