Department of Radiology, Thomas Jefferson University Hospital, Philadelphia, PA 19107.
Two unusual cases of sarcoidosis manifesting as subcutaneous masses of the face are reported: in the first, the lesion occurred at the site of an osteotomy for rhinoplasty and was the initial clinical manifestation of sarcoidosis; in the second, the skin lesion was part of a multisystemic disease. The cases were documented with CT. Sarcoidosis should be added to the differential of soft-tissue masses of the face.
