Özet

Introduction Sarcoidosis is a multi-system disorder characterized by non-caseating epithelioid granulomas in multiple organs. Renal involvement may usually occur as granulomatous interstitial nephritis, but renal failure is uncommon. We report a case of renal-limited sarcoidosis diagnosed by renal biopsy, associated with abnormal calcium metabolism.
