Intralesional triamcinolone for cutaneous palpebral sarcoidosis.
Cosmetically disfiguring bilateral palpebral sarcoid dermatitis in a 32-year-old woman was treated with intradermal triamcinolone. There was rapid and complete resolution of lesions and there was no evidence of recurrence or hypopigmentation at a one-year follow-up examination. Thus, intradermal corticosteroid therapy can be useful for skin lesions in patients with sarcoidosis who do not require systemic therapy.
