  2. Granuloma - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Granuloma

    Sarcoidosis is a disease of unknown cause characterized by non-necrotizing ("non-caseating") granulomas in multiple organs and body sites, [12] most commonly the lungs and lymph nodes within the chest cavity. Other common sites of involvement include the liver, spleen, skin, and eyes.

  3. Sarcoidosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sarcoidosis

    Sarcoidosis is characterized by the formation of non-necrotizing ("non-caseating") granulomas in various organs and tissues. [95] Giant cells, specifically Langhans giant cells, are often seen in sarcoidosis. [96] Schaumann bodies seen in sarcoidosis are calcium and protein inclusions inside of giant cells as part of a granuloma. [97]

  4. Granulomatous–lymphocytic interstitial lung disease - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Granulomatous–lymphocytic...

    Granulomatous–lymphocytic interstitial lung disease (GLILD) is a lung complication of common variable immunodeficiency disorders (CVID). It is seen in approximately 15% of patients with CVID. [1] It has been defined histologically as the presence of (non-caseating) granuloma and lymphoproliferation in the lung. [1]

  5. Tuberculoma - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tuberculoma

    They may appear as either non-caseating or solidly caseating lesions. [20] Initially, tuberculomas appear hypodense on computed tomography (CT) scans with significant surrounding edema. [ 23 ] [ 3 ] The "target sign" is pathognomonic for tuberculoma on CT, with a nodular ring-enhancing mass and central calcification.

  6. Tuberculous lymphadenitis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tuberculous_lymphadenitis

    The characteristic morphological element is the tuberculous granuloma (caseating tubercule): giant multinucleated cells (Langhans cells), surrounded by epithelioid cells aggregates, T cell lymphocytes and few fibroblasts. Granulomatous tubercules evolve to central caseous necrosis and tend to become confluent, replacing the lymphoid tissue.

  7. Langhans giant cell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Langhans_giant_cell

    Granulation tissue with a poorly formed granuloma to the left of centre. Within this area there is a multinucleate giant cell of the Langhans type. The patient had a healing mycobacterial infection of the skin (Mycobacterium ulcerans infection). Langhans giant cells (LGC) are giant cells found in granulomatous conditions.

  9. Berylliosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Berylliosis

    Granuloma formation is seen in other diseases such as tuberculosis and sarcoidosis. Sarcoidosis, like berylliosis, also produces granulomas without a necrotic core, and so distinction between the two processes can be difficult. Ultimately, this process leads to restrictive lung disease (a decrease in diffusion capacity).
