-But the literature also contains multiple reports of sarcoidosis patients – a disease of supposedly unknown origin – also developing skin lesions within tattoos. According to one researcher, this is "a well-recognized occurrence in patients with sarcoidosis."(({{pubmed>long:16027303}})) Ali reviews dozens of cases in which granuloma have formed, more often than not, years after the application of a tattoo.(({{pubmed>long:18258148}})) More than one case report describes how a patient developed sarcoidal granulomas in only one pigment of a tattoo(({{pubmed>long:18258148}})) – which suggests that the needle corresponding to that pigment was infected.+But the literature also contains multiple reports of sarcoidosis patients – a disease of supposedly unknown origin – also developing skin lesions within tattoos.

 There are a number of explanations for how a tattoo could cause this reaction, but the most logical one is that tattoo needles introduce new pathogens into the skin. For one, the fact that sarcoid granuloma appear years after the application of a tattoo corresponds nicely with the length of time it takes for bacteria to grow. There are a number of explanations for how a tattoo could cause this reaction, but the most logical one is that tattoo needles introduce new pathogens into the skin.
