First presentation of sarcoidosis with severe obstructive sleep apnoea and epiglottic involvement.

Sarcoidosis of the upper respiratory tract (SURT) is rare but well documented. We present a patient whose first presentation with sarcoidosis was with dysphonia, upper airways obstruction and severe obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) . Systemic steroids and hydroxycholoroquine led to improvement in phonation, endoscopic appearance and upper airway obstruction with significant improvement in Apnoea Hypopnoea Index (AHI) on polysomnography.
