Photodynamic therapy as an alternative treatment for cutaneous sarcoidosis.

Sarcoidosis is a systemic granulomatous disease. In more than 90% of the cases, sarcoidosis affects the lung with bilateral hilar adenopathy, while skin involvement occurs in about 25% of the cases. Whereas sarcoidosis of the lung is often successfully treated with oral corticosteroids, therapy of cutaneous sarcoidosis is frequently frustrating because some of the lesions may be refractory to treatment or recur quickly after resolution. We report two cases of cutaneous sarcoidosis successfully treated with photodynamic therapy, which represents an effective alternative therapy with fewer side effects.
