Cutaneous sarcoidosis therapy updated
Abstract
The widely accepted standard therapy for cutaneous sarcoidosis includes corticosteroids, antimalarials, and methotrexate. However, a better understanding of the basic immunopathogenic properties of sarcoidosis has elucidated a number of steps critical to the persistence and progression of disease that may be vulnerable to treatment by targeted therapy. This article reviews both standard and newer therapeutic options for cutaneous sarcoidosis.
