Compared to other organs, skin is an uncommon site of tuberculosis involvement. In the era of HIV infection, increased intravenous drug abuse, and the use of immunosuppressive therapy for various systemic diseases, tuberculosis in all its forms, including skin tuberculosis, has re-emerged. We report two cases of primary cutaneous tuberculosis in immunocompetent patients and review the literature of all cases described since 1935.
与其他器官相比,皮肤是结核病累及的罕见部位。在艾滋病病毒感染、静脉注射药物滥用增加以及针对各种全身性疾病使用免疫抑制疗法的时代,包括皮肤结核在内的各种形式的结核病再度出现。我们报告了两例免疫功能正常患者的原发性皮肤结核病例,并回顾了自1935年以来描述的所有病例的文献。
