[Recurrent sarcoidosis in skin scars disclosing repeated thoracic sarcoidosis]

Recurrence of thoracic sarcoidosis after spontaneous regression is extremely rare. Its existence is proven by two new cases associating sarcoidosis with L ofgren 's syndrome and sarcoid in skin scars, the latter facilitating the recognition of the presence of thoracic disease. Surveillance of the behaviour of scars forms part of routine examinations in the sarcoid patient. Even when there has been total spontaneous regression, subsequent clinical and radiological follow-up every two years must be continued.
