[Disseminated extrapulmonary tuberculosis with skin, lymph node and bone involvement].
Disseminated extrapulmonary tuberculosis is uncommon in no immunocompromised hosts. We described the case of a 68-year-old HIV seronegative man, who presented with a 5 months history of constitutional symptoms, generalized lymphadenopathy, evening fever, osteomyelitis of the left fibula and cutaneous lesions (papules and pustules). There was neither clinical nor radiological evidence of pulmonary involvement. On the basis of bacteriological and pathological findings the diagnosis of disseminated extrapulmonary tuberculous was made.
