Zusammenfassung:The clinical features of the six cases of sarcoid arthritis here reported, and of the five previously recorded cases of sarcoid arthritis in childhood, appear to form a syndrome characterized by large, painless, boggy synovial and tendon sheath effusions with little limitation of motion, by typical eye and skin changes, and by an indolent clinical course with minimal or absent constitutional symptoms. These manifestations make it possible to distinguish sarcoid arthritis clinically from juvenile rheumatoid arthritis.
