This study describes two rare sarcoidosis cases with unusual skin lesions, including ichthyosiform and morphea-like presentations. It also highlights a unique association of joint issues without lung involvement in sarcoidosis patients.

Area of Science:

  • Dermatology
  • Rheumatology
  • Internal Medicine

Background:

  • Cutaneous sarcoidosis commonly presents as papules, nodules, or erythema nodosum.
  • Histological examination typically reveals granulomatous inflammation.

Observation:

  • Two patients presented with rare cutaneous manifestations of sarcoidosis.
  • One patient exhibited ichthyosiform lesions.
  • Another patient displayed lesions mimicking linear morphea (localized scleroderma).

Findings:

  • The described skin lesions represent unique presentations of sarcoidosis.
  • A notable finding was the association of articular manifestations without pulmonary involvement.

Implications:

  • These cases expand the spectrum of known cutaneous sarcoidosis presentations.
