Abstract

Sarcoidosis is a chronic multisystemic inflammatory disease of unknown etiology, often associated with pulmonary involvement and characterized histopathologically by non-caseating granulomatous lesions. In this report, we aimed to present a 32-year-old patient who was hospitalized with a pre-diagnosis of cellulite, diagnosed with sarcoidosis based on skin lesions, and whose symptoms completely regressed with sarcoidosis treatment.
