Sarcoidosis Of The Mandibular Condyle: A Rare Disease That Can Mimic Malignancy, Chad Sloan, Ben Lacrosse, Lei Yu, Alexander Braun, Scott Lauer, Timothy Donovan, John Baker, Jason Untrauer
Graduate Medical Education Research Journal
Sarcoidosis can involve any of the organs, however intraosseous involvement is rare and ranges from 5 to 15%, with lesions of the mandible being even rarer – currently with few known cases reported. Intraosseous lesions involving the mandible have been noted to be asymptomatic or associated with chronic jaw pain. Additionally, mandibular involvement can present as a lytic bone lesion mimicking osseous malignancy. Chronic polyarthritis is commonly associated with the progression of sarcoidosis and intraosseous involvement has been considered a late-stage sequelae. We report a case of biopsy-proven sarcoidosis within the mandibular condyle in an asymptomatic 56-year-old Caucasian female who …
