ABSTRACT: Lymphoma might occur in association with sarcoidosis or sarcoidosis might
be combined with lymphoma, in so called (“sarcoidosis-lymphoma syndrome”). This
syndrome is well reported in medical literature. The question, which one starts
before is difficult to answer, as in some cases sarcoidosis starts first then is
followed by lymphoma but in other cases during the course of lymphoma sarcoid
reaction might be seen. In the present report, we describe a case of 60 years
male patient that is presented with a rash with classical sarcoid pathology
that overtime changes into typical lymphoma ended with death.
