Between 20% and 35% of patients with systemic sarcoidosis have skin lesions. One of the unusual cutaneous presentations of sarcoidosis is a granulomatous tattoo reaction that may present alone or with other features of sarcoidosis. We present a case of sarcoidosis whom presented with multiple nodules on tattood skin accompanied with facial pulsy, parotid enlargement and uveitis.

Small nerve fiber loss and damage (SNFLD) is a frequent complication of sarcoidosis that is associated with autonomic dysfunction and sensory abnormalities, including pain syndromes that severely degrade the quality of life. SNFLD is hypothesized to arise from the effects of immune dysregulation, an essential feature of sarcoidosis, on the peripheral and central nervous systems. Current therapy...

BACKGROUND Sarcoidosis is a chronic disease process characterized by non-caseating granulomatous inflammation, usually involving the lower respiratory tract. Given the rarity of rhinologic involvement, the objectives of the present study were (1) to describe clinical features, and (2) to review outcomes of rhinologic surgery for sinonasal sarcoidosis. METHODS Retrospective analysis was perfor...

sarcoidosis is a multisystem noncaseating granulomatous disease with a propensity for lung, eye, and skin which recently have been proposed that mycobacterium tuberculosis may contribute in its pathogenesis, and rarely involves central nervous system (cns). despite cd4+ lymphocytopenia, sarcoidosis by itself does not increase risk of opportunistic infections other than cryptococcosis.nonetheles...

Background: Sarcoidosis is a granulomatous multisystem disease of unknown etiology. It has recently been tired to detect Mycobacteria genome in biopsy specimens of patients with sarcoidosis by Polymorphism chain reaction method. Objective: To detect and identify Mycobacteria species in cutaneous lesions of the patients with sarcoidosis by PCR-RFLP. Patients and methods: 20 patients with clinica...

sarcoidosis is a granulomatius disease of unknown etiology involving multiple body systems.approximately 10-35% of patients with systemic disease have cutaneous involvement.skin lesions commonly observed in sarcoidosis include:erythema nodosum,macular or parpular rashes,nodules,hypopigmented or hyperpigmented patches,scarsarcoid,lupus pernio,plaques,and rarely mocusal lesions.this report descri...

Sir, Sarcoidosis is a chronic multi-system disease of unknown origin involving the eyes, skin, lungs, heart, bones and nerves. Skin lesions are relatively common, and are classified as either specific or non-specific (1). Specific lesions are those that show the typical sarcoid granulomas, including lupus pernio, infiltrated plaques, maculopapular eruptions, subcutaneous nodules and infiltratio...

Sarcoidosis is a systemic disorder in which cutaneous findings are often prominent. These may be polymorphous to the extent that sarcoidosis may mimic many other cutaneous diseases. We describe a 56-year-old woman with involvement of the skin, eyes, bones, heart, and lung. After an initial presentation 10 years earlier of erythema nodosum with bilateral hilar adenopathy, there were three types ...
