Erythema Induratum of Bazin: report of an uncommon case of tuberculosis

Tuberculosis is an endemic infectious disease in Brazil, and its most common form of presentation is the pulmonary form; however, there are several other less frequent forms of presentation that end up having a more difficult diagnosis. Cutaneous forms, for example, represent about 1-2% of extra-pulmonary occurrences. As Brazil has high rates of tuberculosis, it is necessary that health professionals are aware of less frequent forms of the disease. We present a clinical case of a 32-years-old female patient with an unusual form of cutaneous tuberculosis, Erythema Induratum of Bazin.
