Popis: Sarcoidosis is a multisystem granulomatous disease, still inadequately defined and it affects several systems, all of which show monotonously uniform, regular, noncaseating granulomas in all of the affected tissues. We report a case of 50 years old lady, housewife by profession presented with two erythematous annular plaque lesions on right flank and below left axilla with central atrophy since 20 years duration. Histopathological examination showed classical features of cutaneous sarcoidosis. She had no systemic involvement of disease. Cutaneous sarcoidosis has many morphological presentations and often mimics other dermatologic disease.
