Sarcoidosis is a systemic granulomatous disease that affects various organs, including the musculoskeletal system. Tenosynovitis is a common manifestation of sarcoidosis involving the synovial sheaths surrounding the tendons. Sarcoid tenosynovitis is a rare form of tenosynovitis that has been reported in different locations, including the hand, wrist, and ankle. However, only a few foot cases have been reported in the literature. This report presents a case of sarcoid tenosynovitis in the foot and reviews the existing literature on this rare entity.
