Abstract
ABSTRACT: Sarcoidosis is a multisystem autoimmune disorder that is primarily characterized by its pulmonary manifestations. However, it is equally important to recognize the systemic nature of the disease including cutaneous manifestations, which are seen in a sizable proportion of patients with sarcoidosis. Dermatology nurses have a very important role to play in early recognition and diagnosis of this disease. This review article focuses on the multiple cutaneous manifestations of sarcoidosis, suggested clinical workup, and available treatment options. The aim of this review is to increase awareness of this disease among dermatology nurses to help facilitate early diagnosis and management.
