dc.description.abstractAim: The aim of this study is to shed light on sarcoidosis from a rheumatology perspective and to provide a better understanding of sarcoidosis from the perspective of a rheumatologist. Materials and Methods: The files of patients who applied to the rheumatology outpatient clinic with joint complaints between 2020 and 2023 and were diagnosed with sarcoidosis during follow-up or who were already diagnosed with sarcoidosis and had joint complaints during the course of the disease, were retrospectively examined. Results: Joint involvement was observed in all patients (100%). When patients were grouped according to the joints involved, it was found that 17 patients had ankle involvement (60.7%), six patients had metacarpophalangeal joint involvement (21.4%), four (14.2%) patients had wrist involvement, and three (10.7%) patients had knee involvement. Shoulder involvement was detected in one (3.5%) patient. Conclusion: Although sarcoidosis seems to primarily concern chest diseases, from the perspective of rheumatology, it is a very confusing and surprising disease with its heterogeneous nature and joint involvement. It is one of the diseases that should be kept in mind and further studied in rheumatology practice.
