Area of Science:

  • Dermatology
  • Immunology
  • Pulmonology

Background:

  • Sarcoidosis is a multisystem inflammatory disease characterized by non-caseating granulomas.
  • The lichenoid form of cutaneous sarcoidosis is a rare clinical presentation.
  • Early diagnosis and management are crucial for preventing long-term complications.

Observation:

  • A 36-year-old woman presented with a symmetrical, asymptomatic, lichen-like rash on her upper limbs.
  • Skin biopsy revealed a non-necrotizing granulomatous infiltrate consistent with sarcoidosis.
  • Clinical presentation mimicked lichen planus but was confirmed as sarcoidosis.

Findings:

  • Chest X-ray showed bilateral hilar adenopathy (Stage I), with no lung parenchymal involvement.
  • Elevated serum angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) levels were detected.

  • A 67Gallium lung scan supported the diagnosis of sarcoidosis.
  • Implications:

    • This case highlights the importance of considering sarcoidosis in the differential diagnosis of lichenoid eruptions.
    • Cutaneous manifestations can be the initial presentation of systemic sarcoidosis.
    • Multidisciplinary approach involving dermatology, pulmonology, and immunology is essential for comprehensive patient care.
