Sarcoidosis and the kidney: not only the granulomatous interstitial nephritis.

2009 
: Renal involvement in sarcoidosis displays a wide range of manifestations, and kidney dysfunction may involve all three mechanisms of renal failure.

A prostate adenocarcinoma was also diagnosed, but has to be regarded as an unrelated disease.
