Abstract
An 80 year old female patient was seen in the Otolaryngology department with a skin manifestation of her sarcoidosis, known as lupus pernio. Around 25% of patients with sarcoidosis have skin disease and the presence of lupus pernio may suggest a more aggressive form of the disease. Photography of this relatively rare presentation not only helped us diagnose her underlying medical condition but also served as a baseline during treatment.
