Other specific skin lesions include skin nodules that develop on old scars and tattoos; lesions that look like ulcers; lesions that may be mistaken for psoriasis; and lupus pernio, potentially disfiguring lesions that occur on the face, particularly on or around the nose, around the eyes or mouth.

For lupus pernio, a large retrospective study reported that anti-TNF therapy was significantly better than cytotoxic or antimalarial therapy, and it could be considered as second-line therapy for this particular form of skin sarcoidosis.

However, anti-TNF therapy is associated with more toxicity and the risk/benefit ratio must be considered in treating this chronic cutaneous condition.
