Abstrakt		This study was carried out in 59 patients with histological evidence of pulmonary sarcoidosis. In all patients, bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) and transbronchial biopsy (TBB) were performed simultaneously. In histologic specimens of TBB, 24/59 (41 per cent) patients had luminal alveolitis, 36/59 (61 per cent) mural alveolitis, 41/59 (69 per cent) granulomas 11/59 (15 per cent) diffuse fibrosis and 24/59 (41 per cent) focal fibrosis. Cytological examinations of BAL revealed 22/59 (29 per cent) with high intensity alevolitis. Comparative analysis of these patients showed the association of the alveolitis in BAL and the mural alveolitis or granulomas in TBB ( less than 0,01). The conclusion of this study is that cytological findings in BAL represent intestitial cells very well.
