Sarcoidosis is a systemic granulomatous disease of unknown etiology that most frequently occurs in the lungs. However, cutaneous lesions are often the primary sign. Cutaneous sarcoidosis is difficult to treat, although different therapies have been applied. We herein report a case in which cutaneous sarcoidosis was treated with pulsed-dye laser (PDL) therapy along with oral administration of acitretin and hydroxychloroquine; no topical medications were applied. All patient details are de-identified. The treatment areas gradually improved after several courses of PDL therapy. This case illustrates that PDL therapy can serve as an auxiliary treatment for cutaneous sarcoidosis.
结节病是一种病因不明的全身性肉芽肿性疾病，最常发生于肺部。然而，皮肤病变往往是主要症状。尽管已应用了不同的治疗方法，但皮肤结节病仍难以治疗。我们在此报告一例皮肤结节病患者，采用脉冲染料激光（PDL）治疗并口服阿维A和羟氯喹，未应用局部药物。所有患者细节均已去识别化。经过几个疗程的PDL治疗后，治疗区域逐渐改善。该病例表明，PDL治疗可作为皮肤结节病的辅助治疗方法。
