A 52-year-old man with a large external nasal mass is presented. Initially, the mass was thought to be rhinophyma, but biopsy of the mass revealed noncaseating granulomata consistent with sarcoidosis. The mass resolved following several steroid injections. The case is discussed in detail, along with a review of the literature pertaining to sarcoidosis of the nose and nasal cavity.
