Cutaneous vasculitis: an unusual presentation of sarcoidosis in adulthood.
Cutaneous vasculitis (leukocytoclastic vasculitis) is associated with a large and heterogeneous group of clinical syndromes. In spite of being common in children, leukocytoclastic vasculitis associated with sarcoidosis in adulthood is rare. We describe a patient with sarcoidosis presenting as cutaneous vasculitis and review the literature.
