ABSTRACT
Tuberculosis verrucosa cutis (warty tuberculosis) is a type of
cutaneous tuberculosis reinfection, in a paucibacillary form.
Characterized by limited verrucous plaques in upper and lower
extremities.
We present a 50-year-old male, a garbage collector, with
a history of chronic alcoolisme. He began with a gluteal lesion
with erythema and pain, four years ago when he was hospitalized
in a rehab center.
Warty tuberculosis, is a paucibacillary infection, so the diagnosis
and the clinical-therapeutic correlation become a challenge.
