title: Acute sarcoidosis: 3 cases in an acute medical clinic.
abstract: Sarcoidosis is a cryptogenic multisystem granulomatous disorder. We present three patients who presented acutely with erythema nodosum in our Medical Assessment Unit (MAU) or attended our clinic, subsequently diagnosed with acute sarcoidosis. In doing so, we aim to demonstrate that this presentation can easily be seen on the acute medical take, focussing on the management of acute sarcoidosis in association with erythema nodosum. Although patients will often not display florid systemic upset on presentation, we recommend follow-up after initial presentation, to ensure good resolution of symptoms.
