Abstract
Osseous sarcoidosis of the axial skeleton is typically asymptomatic and not routinely imaged with MRI. The natural history of sarcoidosis is generally felt to be resolution spontaneously or with treatment, or unremitting progression. We report a case of recurrent active symptomatic disease after an initial response to immunomodulator treatment with an unusual halo of T2-hyperintensity surrounding treated fibrofatty vestigial lesions.
