Yes, sarcoidosis can potentially cause hypertension, although it is not a common complication. The condition may lead to hypertension indirectly through factors such as renal involvement, which can affect kidney function and blood pressure regulation. Additionally, the use of corticosteroids to manage sarcoidosis can contribute to elevated blood pressure. Regular monitoring and management are important for individuals with sarcoidosis to address any blood pressure issues that may arise.
