Abstract

 
 
 
 Mycobacterium tuberculosis is an aerobic organism causing a disease commonly called tuberculosis (TB). Skin involvement is rare especially in association with pulmonary TB. It involves skin in a number of ways. Most of the time they are confused with systemic disease causing involvement of both pulmonary and extra pulmonary organs. Diagnosing such cases are challenging and in almost all cases histological confirmation is necessary. We are presenting a case with erythematous nodular skin lesion on nose, cheeks and on her back near scapular area along with chest involvement.
