Cutaneous sarcoid with varied morphology associated with hypercalcaemia and renal impairment.

H Miida1, M Ito.   

Abstract

Sarcoidosis is a multisystem disorder of unknown aetiology, which presents with hilar lymphadenopathy, pulmonary infiltration, and ocular and cutaneous involvement. Cutaneous lesions often present as erythema nodosum, maculopapular, plaque, scar, subcutaneous nodule or lupus pernio. Most patients with cutaneous involvement have a single type of skin lesion, but some cases may have > or = 2 types. We report a case of sarcoidosis presenting with various types of skin lesions. The case was also complicated by hypercalcaemia and renal dysfunction, and was successfully treated with oral corticosteroids. Presentation of various skin lesions may indicate systemic organ involvement requiring treatment with systemic corticosteroid.
