Sarcoidosis is a well known systemic disorder that invariably involves lungs. However, pulmonary hypertension and cor-pulmanle are not common due to pulmonary involvement of sarcoidosis. We report a case of pulmonary hypertension leading to corpulmonale due to sarcoidosis. An elderly female suffering from hypertension & sarcoidosis developed complications and arrived at the diagnosis by correlating various investigations. X-ray chest (P/A) showed cardiomegaly (right ventricular type), reticulo-nodular shadow involving both mid and lower zone; characteristic high resolution CT (HRCT) scan appearances include reticulonodular opacities; pulmonary function test showed restrictive type of defect; ECG showed right ventricular hypertrophy with strain pattern; in echocardiogram there were right ventricular hypertrophy (RVH) with pulmonary artery systolic pressure (PASP) of 63 mmHg indicating severe pulmonary arterial hypertension (PH); along with significantly elevated B-type natriuretic peptide(BNP) level.Bangladesh Heart Journal 2015; 30(1) : 37-42

1. Rats kept in a hypoxic chamber (10% O2) for 3 or more weeks developed right ventricular hypertrophy, muscularization of pulmonary arterioles and polycythaemia. These changes resemble those found in human hypoxic disease and, in particular, in patients dying from chronic airways obstruction. 2. Resolution of these changes was studied in a normal environment and in an intermittently normal, intermittently hypoxic environment. The latter regimen modelled the situation of patients with cor pulmonale receiving long-term intermittent oxygen therapy. 3. In a normal environment right ventricular hypertrophy and polycythaemia were resolved in 6 weeks but vessel changes were not resolved in 12 weeks. 4. In the intermittently normoxic environment (40 or 80 h in air per week) there was some resolution of right ventricular hypertrophy in 6 weeks but no significant reduction in vessel thickening or in polycythaemia in 12 weeks.
