Löfgren's syndrome is an acute form of sarcoidosis that is characterised by articular symptoms, erythema nodosum and bilateral hilar lymphadenopathy. This syndrome is rare in Japan. We report a 62-year-old Japanese woman with Löfgren's syndrome and describe the articular manifestations as evaluated by multiple imaging modalities. Musculoskeletal ultrasound, magnetic resonance imaging and positron emission tomography-computed tomography findings indicated periarticular and subcutaneous inflammation. These imaging modalities facilitated the diagnosis of Löfgren's syndrome and helped differentiate from other rheumatic diseases.
洛弗格伦综合征是一种急性结节病，其特征为关节症状、结节性红斑和双侧肺门淋巴结病。这种综合征在日本很少见。我们报告了一例 62 岁的日本女性洛弗格伦综合征患者，并描述了多种影像学检查评估的关节表现。肌肉骨骼超声、磁共振成像和正电子发射断层扫描-计算机断层扫描结果显示关节周围和皮下炎症。这些影像学检查有助于洛弗格伦综合征的诊断，并有助于与其他风湿病相鉴别。
