Pubic and ischial sarcoidosis: a single bone lesion

BJR Case Rep. 2022 Jan 10;8(2):20210091. doi: 10.1259/bjrcr.20210091. eCollection 2022 Mar 10.

Abstract

Bone sarcoidosis is very rarely indicative of the disease. When bone lesion is associated with lung and lymph node involvement, diagnosis can be made based on clinical and imaging features. When bone lesion is isolated, it is difficult to differentiate it from bone metastases because they both have similar appearance in imaging: in this case, the diagnosis is made by bone biopsy with histological study. We report the case of a 61-year-old male with a lytic lesion of the right ischio pubic ramus which appears to be aggressive whose biopsy revealed bone sarcoidosis.
