BACKGROUND: Sarcoidosis can be associated with stroke. Whether granulomatous vasculitis directly causes stroke in patients with sarcoidosis remains unclear. This systematic review aims to consolidate reports of concurrent sarcoidosis and stroke.
METHODS: Medline and Embase were searched for terms encompassing sarcoidosis and stroke with a censoring date of March 25, 2023. Cases were reviewed by two authors, with the inclusion criteria: biopsy-confirmed systemic sarcoidosis, stroke confirmed by imaging or pathology, clinical description of individual patient history, and English language publications.
RESULTS: Of 1628 articles screened, 51 patients from 49 articles were included (65% male, mean age 41 years). Seventy-one percent of strokes were ischemic and 29% were hemorrhagic. Lesions were supratentorial in 78% of cases, infratentorial in 34%, and multifocal in 45%. Presenting symptoms were variable, with the most common being headache (38%) followed by weakness (35%). 10 patients had recurrent strokes. Stroke was the presenting symptom of sarcoidosis in 65%. 21 patients had brain biopsies. The most common neuropathologic findings were perivascular (33%) or intramural (33%) non-caseating granulomas. On imaging, 32 patients had findings suggestive of neurosarcoidosis, including 35% with evidence of meningeal enhancement. 63% of patients were treated with corticosteroids and/or other immunomodulatory therapy, with varying clinical improvement.
CONCLUSIONS: Stroke associated with sarcoidosis generally follows trends in stroke incidence, with infarction being more common than hemorrhage and male sex carrying a higher risk. Most patients were diagnosed with sarcoidosis during or following their stroke episode. Brain biopsy infrequently shows clear granulomatous vasculitis.
