Abstract
Sarcoidosis is a granulomatous systemic disease of undetermined origin. Its dermatological manifestations are present in 25%
of cases and they are very polymorphic. Nail abnormalities are unusual in sarcoidosis and are often an indication of systemic
involvement. Dermoscopy of the nail may be very useful in some isolated cases and can guide us to the right diagnosis. We report a
rare case of systemic sarcoidosis presenting as nail dystrophy with painful phalanges and underlying bony cysts, treated successfully
by oral corticosteroid with good evolution
