Abstract
A man 60 years old suddenly developed hard nodules in a tattoo that had been placed 45 years ago. The interest of the case lies in the following points: the histopathology of a biopsied specimen was that of a sercoid reaction; lung changes were subsequently found that were interpreted as pulmonary sarcoidosis; and the cutaneous lesions began to flatten after the biopsy was taken, and within 4 months both they and the lung changes had disappeared.
