Abstract
Extra pulmonary Tuberculosis involving soft tissues and affecting the joints and surrounding structures (tuberculous arthritis) is well known. However, Tubercular myositis is a rare condition with skeletal muscle involvement without underlying osseous or extra osseous involvement in extremely rare presentation. Due to atypical presentation the diagnosis is often delayed. We report and present a case of isolated tubercular myositis of Vastus lateralis muscle in severe osteo arthritis knee patient without evidence of any primary focus.
