Sarcoidosis Complicated by Cirrhosis and Hepatopulmonary Syndrome

Canadian Respiratory Journal, Volume 15, Issue 3, Page 124-126, 2008., 2008
Sarcoidosis is a multisystem disorder commonly affecting the lungs, but also the liver, with cirrhosis and portal hypertension occurring in fewer than 1% of cases. Although hepatopulmonary syndrome (HPS) is seen in 15% to 20% of patients with cirrhosis of varying causes, it has rarely been associated with sarcoidosis.
