title: Sarcoidosis with oral involvement.
abstract: A case of sarcoidosis with bilateral hilar lymphadenopathy and multiple submucosal papular oral mucosa lesions is presented. The clinical signs and symptoms described in this case are not uncommon, and their distinguishing features may expedite accurate diagnosis. Early incisional biopsy of the oral mucosa appears useful for histopathologic proof of the diagnosis.
