Cutaneous sarcoidosis represents a fascinating and often visible manifestation of this systemic granulomatous disease. This chapter explores the diverse spectrum of skin involvement in sarcoidosis, ranging from subtle papules and plaques to disfiguring nodules and scars. Unlike other organ-specific presentations, the skin offers a unique window into the diagnosis and monitoring of sarcoidosis, reflecting underlying systemic inflammation and granuloma formation. By examining the clinical presentations, histopathological features, and differential diagnoses of cutaneous sarcoidosis, we aim to deepen understanding among clinicians and dermatologists. This knowledge empowers effective management strategies, enhances diagnostic accuracy, and ultimately improves the quality of care for patients with this distinctive form of sarcoidosis.
