Frontal swelling – An unusual presentation of sarcoidosis: A case report

Subcutaneous sarcoidosis is a rare, cutaneous expression of systemic sarcoidosis. It is observed as asymptomatic firm, nodules covered by normal-appearing skin, principally on the extremities, which show the typical histopathology appearance of non-caseating granulomas localized to the subcutaneous tissue. It may be associated with the early benign, hilar lymphadenopathy of sarcoidosis or with the later stages of progressive sarcoidosis. Here, we report a case of subcutaneous sarcoidosis, which presented as an asymptomatic, forehead swelling with involvement of skull bone and lung. We report this case since subcutaneous sarcoidosis on the face with involvement of skull bone is a rarity.
