Abstract

A 62-year-old man was reviewed in outpatients with a history of palpitations and increasing shortness of breath. He had a diagnosis of sarcoidosis made in his twenties, which had predominately affected his eyes and had previously been treated with oral steroids. He had not needed any treatment for over 15 years. A CXR was requested (Image 1).
