Painful leg lesions: a case report.
We describe a case of Loefgren's syndrome where the characteristic history and physical exam allowed for the provisional diagnosis to be made in the emergency department. The diagnosis was subsequently confirmed by hilar lymph node biopsy demonstrating noncaseating granulomas. The prognosis and treatment are briefly reviewed.
