| Abstract: | Sarcoidosis is a multisystem granulomatous disease of unknown cause. Theosteoarticular involvement in sarcoidosis is rare and is often associated withcutaneous and long-standing chronic multisystem disease. More common in blackwomen, osseous sarcoidosis is difficult to diagnose, with an incidence of 3 to13%. The most characteristic radiological clinical picture evidences rounded,well-defined cysts, with no periosteal reaction and without peripheralsclerosis. The small bones of hands and feet are the most frequently involvedsites. This report aims to demonstrate a rare case of osteoarticular sarcoidosiswith characteristic clinical presentation, and highlight the importance ofdetecting osteoarticular involvement in this pathology. |
