ocular involvement is seen in approximately 25% of patients with sarcoidosis. uveitis is the most common ocular manifestation, but sarcoidosis may involve any part of the eye. orbital manifestations of sarcoidosis are uncommon with few series in the literature. a 65-year-old woman presented with redness of the right eye and painless, unilateral eyelid swelling. orbital scanning revealed mass in...

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.

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...

purpose: to describe a patient with eyelid sarcoidosis. case report: a 54 year-old patient was referred for an eyelid mass from 6 months ago.excisional biopsy showed inflammatory granuloma with tuton gaint cells. chest radiograph demonstrated bilateral hilar adenopathy, increased absorption on gallium scan was noted and bronchoalveolar lavage confirmed a diagnosis of sarcoidosis. treatment with...

results in total, 261 patients (119 sarcoidosis and 142 non-sarcoidosis ilds) were enrolled. the median (interquartile range) bal cd4/cd8 ratio and lymphocyte fraction were significantly higher in sarcoidosis than in non-sarcoidosis ilds: 3.88 (3.76) versus 0.88 (1.01), respectively, and 20.6 (28.3) versus 6.0 (13.7), respectively. t cell receptor γ delta, cd16+56+, cd103+, cd8+103+, and cd3+16...
