Sarcoidosis is a multisystemic disease characterized by non-caseating granulomas of unknown etiology. While pulmonary manifestations are present in 90% of cases, extrapulmonary sarcoidosis cases are rare and diagnosis is often challenging due to atypical clinical course. Here, we aim to present a case of extrapulmonary sarcoidosis diagnosed after excluding Macrophage Activation Syndrome and lymphoma during clinical follow-up.
