Idiopathic conditions, such as inflammatory pseudotumor, Kimura's disease, and Castleman's disease, can also present with a neck mass.22 â 24 A neck mass may also be the presenting symptom of sarcoidosis.25
Many people with sarcoidosis don't have type 1 diabetes as well, so it is unlikely that sarcoidosis caused it all alone. Most people who are going to manifest type 1 diabetes are diagnosed in childhood or their teenage years. Occasionally it will not manifest until adulthood.
Sarcoidosis is a disease involving abnormal collections of inflammatory cells that form lumps known as granulomas. The disease usually begins in the lungs, skin, or lymph nodes. Less commonly affected are the eyes, liver, heart, and brain. Any organ, however, can be affected. The signs and symptoms depend on the organ involved. Often there are no, or only mild, symptoms. When it affects the lungs there may be wheezing, coughing, shortness of breath, or chest pain. Some may have LÃ¶fgren syndrome
