ABSTRACT

Cutaenous tuberculosis is a uncommon variety of extrapulmonary tuberculosis caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Tuberculosis verrucosa cutis is a clinical form characterized by limited verrucose plaques affecting mainly hands, knees, ankles and buttocks. We describe a 52-year-old female with an atypical presentation with a nine month history.
