[...]. Sarcoid-Like Reaction Induced by Interferon Therapy. CTICases. Published August 12, 2016. https://cticases.com/c/j5uef
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.
