INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVE: Sarcoidosis is a systemic granulomatous disease predominantly affecting the lungs, although granulomas can also involve all other organs. Fortunately, it is often a self-limiting disease and aggressive treatment is not indicated in majority of cases. However, treatment is recommended when critical organs are affected or the disease is progressive. So far, there is lack of reliable information regarding the frequency of treatment in Caucasian population or data are discordant. The aim of this study was to evaluate the prevalence of systemic immune-modulating treatment in a large cohort of sarcoidosis patients.
METHODS: We performed a retrospective analysis of patients discharged from our institution with the final diagnosis 'sarcoidosis' (ICD-10: D86) from January 2010 to December 2013.
RESULTS: 1810 sarcoidosis patients were hospitalized during these four years, 47.6% were females, mean age was 43.5 ± 12.2 years. The majority (80.6%) were discharged as pulmonary and/or lymph node sarcoidosis (D86.0, D86.1, D86.2). Only 281 (15.5%) patients were discharged with systemic treatment, 60.1% of them were men (OR 1.5; 95% CI: 1.1-1.9, P = .0047). The 44.8% of patients who had sarcoidosis also involving an organ other than the lungs (D86.8) were much more likely to be treated: OR 5.6; 95% CI: 4.2-7.4, P < .0001). Older age (>50) was also identified as a risk factor for treatment (odds ratio: 1.8; 95% CI: 1.5-2.4).
CONCLUSIONS: Less than 16% sarcoidosis patients required systemic treatment. Older men with multiorgan sarcoidosis were more likely to be treated.
