[Interpretation of the Mitsuda and Kveim tests in the differential diagnosis of tuberculoid hanseniasis and cutaneous sarcoidosis].

Patients with sarcoidosis that present only cutaneous lesions are uncommon but have been described. In countries where leprosy occurs as an endemic disease the differential diagnosis between sarcoidosis and tuberculoid leprosy may be difficult to establish. In order to entrance the correct diagnosis this study presents a table in which the results of lepromin and Kveim tests are analyzed are correlated to the other.

The distribution of T cell subsets of Kveim and sarcoid granulomata. An immunohistological investigation of blood, Kveim test sites and sarcoid tissue lesions from 16 patients.

T lymphocyte subsets in a positive Kveim reaction and sarcoid tissue lesions as well as peripheral blood from 16 patients with sarcoidosis were evaluated with monoclonal antibodies. The data demonstrate a redistribution of T cells from the blood to the specifically involved tissues with granulomas, i.e., sarcoid tissue lesions and positive Kveim reaction. These cells express CD2+, CD4+ phenotype as demonstrated by high CD4/CD8 ratios at the sites of positive Kveim reaction and sarcoid tissue lesions with respect to blood.
