Abstract
Musculoskeletal involvement of sarcoidosis is a rare entity, reported to have an incidence of 1–13%. Here we describe a case of sarcoidosis, with a history of finger sprain after a trivial injury, and incidental finding of multiple bony involvement over the left hand after radiography and magnetic resonance imaging.
