Sarcoidosis is a multisystem inflammatory disease manifesting as noncaseating epithelioid cell granulomas. 25 to 30% of individuals with systemic sarcoidosis show variable cutaneous manifestations. A 59-year-old female was seen with reticular purplish-red nodules and plaques on the legs for three months. A skin biopsy of the livedo area revealed non-caseating epithelioid cell granulomas surrounding blood vessels in the dermis. She was diagnosed with sarcoidosis livedo, and cutaneous lesions subsided with oral prednisone. Sarcoidosis livedo (SL) assumes a uncommon livedo reticularis-like presentation. This is the first Chinese patient with SL, and more patients are needed to unveil the unique characters of SL.
结节病是一种多系统炎症性疾病,表现为非干酪样上皮样细胞肉芽肿。25%至30%的系统性结节病患者有不同的皮肤表现。一名59岁女性因腿部出现网状紫红色结节和斑块3个月前来就诊。对青斑区域进行皮肤活检,结果显示真皮层血管周围有非干酪样上皮样细胞肉芽肿。她被诊断为结节病性青斑,口服泼尼松后皮肤病变消退。结节病性青斑(SL)呈现出一种罕见的类似网状青斑的表现。这是首例中国的SL患者,需要更多患者来揭示SL的独特特征。
