Abstract

A case of destructive osseous sarcoidosis involving the lower lumbar spine, sacrum, and pelvis has been presented. The pattern of multiple small lytic lesions without sclerosis in this distribution has not been described previously. Identification of these lesions was only possible by computed tomography and differentiation from metastatic disease required open biopsy.
