  • Cutaneous involvement is common in sarcoidosis, presenting in various forms.
  • Neurologic and pulmonary sarcoidosis can coexist with specific skin manifestations.

Observation:

  • A 39-year-old woman presented with a 4-year history of paraparesis.
  • She developed asymptomatic, ichthyosiform scaling on her lower extremities, notably on the pretibial areas.
