Abstract

A 38-year-old man presented with a tender erythematous rash associated with polyarthralgia and mediastinal lymphadenopathy. Skin biopsy revealed neutrophil-predominant dermal infiltrate consistent with Sweet syndrome, and endobronchial ultrasound and biopsy showed nonnecrotizing granulomas compatible with sarcoidosis. We review the rare association between Sweet syndrome and sarcoidosis, in which its diagnosis can be challenging and only a few cases have been reported in medical literature.
