Sarcoidosis is a systemic granulomatous disease with widely variable clinical characteristics, including numerous head and neck manifestations. We describe the case of a 49-year-old man who presented to the emergency department with symptoms consistent with complicated sinusitis. He was ultimately found to have an atypical case of neurosarcoidosis. This case illustrates the varied multisystem presentation of sarcoidosis and the diagnostic considerations that are merited.
