%X Sarcoidosis is a systemic granulomatous disease; however, the incidence of bone sarcoidosis is relatively rare. The short tubular bones of the hands and feet are most frequently affected, while the vertebrae and the pelvic bones are rarely involved. We hereby report a rare case of multiple bone sarcoidosis involving the vertebrae and pelvic bones, evaluated before and after steroid therapy using two different imaging modalities: bone scintigraphy and A 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography combined with computed tomography (FDG-PET/CT). FDG-PET/CT is effective for detecting bone lesions; however, whole-body imaging is recommended to detect the short tubular bones of the hands and feet, which are most frequently affected.
