Rapid response of tattoo-associated cutaneous sarcoidosis to minocycline: case report and review of the literature.
CONCLUSIONS: To our knowledge, this is the first report of cutaneous sarcoidosis in tattoos treated with minocycline. Our patient's rapid response to minocycline suggests that minocycline may be a quickly effective medication for cutaneous sarcoidosis and should be considered as a therapeutic option given its favorable side-effect profile.
