Abstract :
A case of sarcoidosis involving the tongue is described in a 48-year-old Japanese man. A definite diagnosis of sarcoidosis was made for the clinical lesion and pathological examinations. Sarcoidosis is a multisystem granulomatous disease that may affect any organ. Sarcoidosis of the tongue is particularly rare.
