In this retrospective study, we investigated vascular abnormalities in sarcoidosis using fluorescein gonioangiography (FGA) to detect angle neovascularization (ANV), fundus fluorescein angiography (FFA), and pathological specimens from the aspects of microangiopathy. In 57 sarcoidosis patients, clinical data was reviewed by dividing the cases into three groups (Group I: histologically diagnosed; Group II: positive bilateral hilar lymphadenopathy (BHL); Group III: negative BHL). The FFA, FGA, and pathological examination data in the autopsy eyes and trabeculectomy specimens were investigated. FGA and FFA detected ANV (91%) and nodule-associated abnormalities (87%), respectively. No intraocular pressure (IOP) elevation was observed after continuous topical betamethasone, except in the steroid responder group. Maximum IOP had significant correlation with nodules in the angle (p = 0.02696) and visual field defect (p = 0.0151). Granulomas adjacent to blood vessels, including the Schlemm’s canal, and thickening of the retinal blood vessel wall caused occlusion of those vessels. Photocoagulation was required for retinal tears (14%) and the retinal blood vessel occlusion (7%). Suppression of IOP elevation via continuous topical betamethasone may be important to avoid irreversible outflow-route changes and optic-nerve damage, and the concept of microangiopathy in ocular sarcoidosis may be important for understanding the proper treatment of serious complications.

Purpose. To introduce a minimally invasive procedure, endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA), to obtain a pathologic evidence of a definite ocular sarcoidosis in a patient who initially presented with presumed ocular sarcoidosis with pulmonary involvement.Methods. An EBUS-TBNA procedure was performed at perihilar lymph nodes, subcarina, and right paratrachea of the patient and specimen obtained was sent for histocytopathological studies.Result. Histocytopathological findings revealed aggregates of epithelioid histiocytes forming a noncaseous granuloma, a hallmark of sarcoidosis.Conclusion. EBUS-TBNA should be considered an alternative procedure to provide cytohistopathology proven diagnosis of definite ocular sarcoidosis.
