[Sarcoidosis of the paranasal sinuses].
Nasosinusal Sarcoidosis is an uncommon entity setting forth diagnostical and therapeutical questions to be answered. The AA. report a case of the sort with simultaneous pathological involvement of the skin, without systemic manifestations. The disease showed as a mucopurulent scaly rhinitis. The maxillary sinus was stuffed with sarcoid tissue. Both topical and systemic treatment with corticoid drugs failed to bring nasal and sinusal lesions to lessening. The skin changes unfolded favourably.
