Sarcoidosis is a granulomatous disease that can affect any organ. GLO:DIF/01jan23:ijd16438-fig-0002.jpg PHOTO (COLOR): 2 Nail sarcoidosis associated with a sausage finger appearance characteristic of sarcoidosis dactylitis gl The nail lesions found in sarcoidosis can be explained by the compressive effect of the granuloma on the nail plate and phalanges.[3] Therefore, it is recommended to perform longitudinal biopsies of the nail instead of punch biopsies to confirm the diagnosis. Skin involvement occurs in 20-35% of patients with sarcoidosis, most often at the time of diagnosis.[1] Nail involvement is rare, but its presence is a sign of chronic systemic disease.[2] We report two cases of multisystem sarcoidosis developing nail involvement during the course of the disease.
