The term sarcoid comes from the Greek root SARK, meaning flesh or meat. “OID” in Greek means “like”. Thus, the term “sarcoid” can be translated as “fleshlike”
or “meat-like”. This disease is now called sarcoidosis. Sarcoidosis -Benier-Beck-Schaumann disease, this term was introduced in 1948 at a conference in
Washington. More than 100 years have passed since sarcoidosis was first
described, but the key aspects of the disease remain obscure.
