Abstract

A total of 40 patients with skin manifestations of sarcoidosis were examined, including 34 with specific cutaneous sarcoid lesions and 6 with nonspecific erythema nodosum. It is demonstrated that cutaneous sarcoidosis is associated with disease activity and can be considered as one of earliest markers of this disease.
