Verrucous lesion over the foot: a diagnostic challenge

Infection with <em>Mycobacterium tuberculosis </em>or other very closely related strains, as well as the inflammatory reaction of the host, define the disease tuberculosis. Cutaneous tuberculosis constitutes a small proportion of extrapulmonary tuberculosis. Extensive, multifocal involvement of cutaneous tuberculosis is a rare manifestation. We report one such case of tuberculosis verrucosa cutis in a 24 year old immunocompetent male patient.
