Abstract
A 29-year-old black man with HIV infection had an abnormal chest x-ray film with bilateral hilar adenopathy. Sarcoidosis was suspected, but a thorough and comprehensive evaluation was completed to differentiate the multiple infectious and noninfectious causes of these findings. Biopsy of a hilar node and pulmonary tissue revealed sarcoidosis.
