  • Title: Sarcoidosis presenting as necrotizing sinus destruction mimicking Wegener's granulomatosis.
    Author: Hasni SA, Gruber BL.
    Journal: J Rheumatol; 2000 Feb; 27(2):512-4. PubMed ID: 10685824.
    Abstract:
    We describe a 26-year-old man who developed nasal stuffiness and palatal destruction. Biopsy of a mass in the ethmoid sinus confirmed sarcoidosis. Treatment was initiated with oral steroid and methotrexate, with marked improvement in his symptoms. Although paranasal sinus involvement in sarcoidosis is rare it should be considered in differential diagnosis of diseases causing palatal or paranasal sinus destruction.
