RESUMEN

A 50-year-old Thai woman presented with papulonecrotic tuberculid-like eruptions on her back and inframammary area with fever, nonproductive cough and weight loss. Chest radiograph showed diffuse bilateral reticulonodular opacities in both lungs with bilateral hilar lymph node enlargement. High resolution computed tomography (HRCT) of the lungs showed peribronchovascular interstitial thickening with multiple lymph nodes enlargement. Sputum for AFB was negative. Monotest (PPD) was negative. Skin biopsy revealed multiple naked granuloma compatible with sarcoidosis. She was treated with isoniazid, 300 mg/d, rifamipicin, 600 mg/d, ethambutal, 800, mg/d and pyrazinamide, 1000 mg/d for 2 months without improvement of skin and lung lesions.
