Introduction: Primary cutaneous tuberculosis (PCTB) is a relatively uncommon presentation, particularly in immunocompetent subjects and its diagnosis may be delayed, as it resembles many other skin infections. Conclusions: A diagnosis of PCTB should be kept in mind in all patients who present with a chronic skin infection (especially nodular, ulcerated, and purulent lesions) with no response to initial antibacterial therapy.
