Löfgren's syndrome misdiagnosed as cellulitis.

Daryl Ray Cheng1, Amit Maini.   

Abstract

Löfgren's syndrome is an acute-onset presentation of sarcoidosis that can be easily missed in an ED setting. A case is reported of Löfgren's syndrome presenting as erythema nodosum with bilateral ankle oedema. Although rare, this diagnosis should be considered when examining a patient with erythema nodosum and articular symptoms.
