Abstrakt: This article, titled "PARADOXICAL SARCOIDOSIS CASE," discusses a case of paradoxical sarcoidosis in a 56-year-old female patient with ankylosing spondylitis who was receiving certolizumab treatment. After receiving five doses of certolizumab, the patient experienced weight loss, fatigue, loss of appetite, and widespread joint pain. Further examinations revealed lymphadenomegaly and granuloma, leading to a diagnosis of paradoxical sarcoidosis. The certolizumab treatment was discontinued, and the patient was monitored for improvement. The article emphasizes that such reactions tend to improve or resolve with the discontinuation of the medication. [Extracted from the article]
