- Abstract: Sarcoidosis is a multisystem granulomatous disorder of an unknown etiology. Subcutaneous sarcoidosis is a rare manifestation of sarcoidosis, and plantar involvement is extremely rare and there is only one such case report in the medical literature. Herein we present an interesting case of a patient who was diagnosed as having subcutaneous sarcoidosis at a plantar localization because plantar involvement is extremely rare and also because of the successful outcome after performing intralesional corticosteroid therapy.
