title: Manifestations of cutaneous sarcoidosis: a case report of an African American woman.
abstract: Cutaneous sarcoidosis is challenging to diagnose due to its many nonspecific manifestations. In this report we describe a case of cutaneous sarcoidosis in a patient presenting with multiple lesions. Diagnosis of the disease involves not only clinical and pathologic findings but also multiple exclusions.
