CTICasesSarcoid-Like Reaction Induced by Interferon Therapy
Imaging findings
Modest, new enlargement of hilar and intrapulmonary lymph nodes is observed, which spontaneously regressed over time.
Key takeaways
Interferon therapy, used for conditions like melanoma, can induce a sarcoid-like reaction characterized by granulomatous lymphadenopathy that may spontaneously resolve. This highlights a drug-related immune response mimicking sarcoidosis.
