A rare case of lichenoid sarcoidosis mimicking papular amyloidosis

Abstract

Cutaneous lesions in sarcoidosis are seen in nearly 20–30% and include lesions like papules, nodules, plaques, infiltrated scars, and erythema nodosum. Lichenoid variants of cutaneous sarcoidosis, a type of papular variant is quite rare. Herein we report a case of lichenoid sarcoidosis in a 40-year-old male who presented with raised itchy lesions over his legs and lower back of 8 years duration.
