title: Overlap of sarcoidosis and rosacea.
abstract: Numerous descriptions have been applied to rosacea-like eruptions of the face, some of them remaining of questionable nosologic significance. A case of rosacea-like syndrome with lacrimal, ocular and salivary involvement is described. The differential diagnosis and therapeutic response of this unusual association are discussed.
