Osseous manifestations of sarcoidosis

Abstract: Sarcoidosis is a systemic multisystem inflammatory disease of unknown etiology. The disease is characterized by formation of non-caseating granulomas. The most common presentation is bilateral hilar lymphadenopathy and lung infiltration, but the disease is very heterogeneous, with an unpredictable clinical course. Musculoskeletal manifestations are common. Bone involvement is less frequent, and usually occurs in patients with chronic multisystem course of the disease. They are most commonly found in the phalan… Show more

“…2 However, in some studies, it may affect axial skeleton, skull, long bones, and ribs. 3 The pelvic form as in our case is not classical and tends to be similar to inflammatory sacroiliitis secondary to spondyloarthropathy or infectious sacroiliitis (favored by long-term corticosteroid therapy). In the literature, bone sarcoidosis and inflammatory sacroiliitis might be associated in young patients.…”

“…Decreased muscle mass may appear together with decreased bone mass, in what has been named osteosarcopenia [40,41], but the relationship of sarcopenia, low BMD, and osteoporosis in RA patients is not fully established understood [42].…”

“…However, occult sarcoidosis involvement revealed in patients investigated by 18F FDG-PET is more common. Overt osseous sarcoidosis is most often expressed at the clinical level by pain and deformed fingers, and on radiography by typical cystic lesions or moth-eaten patterns in the phalange heads of hands and toes, sometimes with surrounding soft tissue swelling [ 64 ]. These manifestations occur after several years of evolution in sarcoidosis, particularly in association with lupus pernio or sinonasal sarcoidosis.…”
