Sarcoidosis is a multisystem granulomatous disease, which is usually associated
with the formation of noncaseating granulomas in affected tissues and organs. It
is mostly present with bilateral hilar lymphadenopathy, pulmonary infiltration,
ocular, and cutaneous lesions. Oral manifestations of this disease are relatively
rare. The present case report shows a 40-year-old male with lesions in the soft
tissue of oral cavity (buccal mucosa, gingiva, and palate) and a diagnosis of
sarcoidosis was established following hematological, biochemical and pulmonary
function tests, chest radiograph, and histopathological investigation.
