Sarcoidosis is a granulomatous condition with diverse clinical presentations, including neurological findings. It was previously hypothesized that perineural sarcoidal granulomas in the skin may be an explanation of small-fiber neuropathy. Herein, we present a case of a 55 year old female with anesthetic cutaneous lesions mimicking leprosy clinically and histopathologically and discuss the importance of this differential diagnosis.
结节病是一种具有多种临床表现的肉芽肿性疾病，包括神经系统表现。以前曾有人推测，皮肤中的神经周围结节样肉芽肿可能是小纤维神经病变的一种解释。在此，我们报告一例55岁女性患者，其皮肤麻醉性病变在临床和组织病理学上均酷似麻风，并讨论这种鉴别诊断的重要性。
