Gastrointestinal sarcoidosis is a rare clinical entity. Diagnosis of isolated gastric sarcoidosis is difficult as it is usually asymptomatic; when symptomatic it presents with non-specific symptoms such as abdominal pain, nausea and vomiting. We here present a case of a 32-year-old black lady who presented with non-specific abdominal complaints; a diagnosis gastric sarcoidosis was established following endoscopic biopsy. Here symptoms resolved promptly with steroidal therapy as with most cases. Gastric sarcoidosis should be suspected in sarcoid patients who present with nonspecific abdominal complaints. This case serves as an important clinical reminder of the atypical manifestations of sarcoidosis. http://pubs.sciepub.com/ajmcr/4/2/7/ajmcr-4-2-7.pdf gastric sarcoidosis sarcoidosis esophagogastroduodenoscopy corticosteroidal therapy
