Cholestasis with hepatic fibrosis secondary to sarcoidosis--a case report.

Sarcoidosis is a chronic granulomatous disease of unknown etiology occurring world wide. The problem of diagnosis of sarcoidosis in a country like Pakistan is two fold: lack of awareness of its existence and difficulty in differentiating it from the highly prevalent tuberculosis with which it shares many clinical and pathological features. It can affect almost any organ. We present a case with one of the rarer manifestations cholestasis with hepatic fibrosis. To our knowledge this is the first such case being reported from Pakistan.
