A large number of cases of multiple benign sarcoid of Boeck and Darier-Roussy have been studied at length, chiefly as regards the etiology of the condition, and, as yet, no conclusions have been accepted. In the literature there are about sixty reported cases, and these have been well summarized repeatedly.
