Sarcoidosis is a multisystemic disease present worldwide that is characterized by pulmonary and mediastinal involvement in most patients. To confirm the diagnosis, it is important to have a biopsy showing non-caseating granulomas and the exclusion of other differential diagnoses. Therefore, the selection of the diagnostic method for histological confirmation plays a fundamental role in these patients. Thus, in recent years, endoscopic bronchial ultrasound (EBUS) has shown to be a safe method with a high diagnostic yield that should be considered in the approach to this pathology when there is mediastinal involvement.
