The commonest form of cutaneous tuberculosis is lupus vulgaris, whose incidence has steadily decreased during recent decades. We describe an 82-year-old man who presented with a large plaque of lupus vulgaris on his chin and upper neck which had been present for 71 years. This case clearly emphasizes the need for increased awareness of this disease, since its frequency may be greater than generally thought.
皮肤结核最常见的形式是寻常狼疮，其发病率在最近几十年中稳步下降。我们描述了一名82岁男性，其下巴和上颈部出现一块巨大的寻常狼疮斑块，已存在71年。该病例清楚地强调了提高对这种疾病认识的必要性，因为其发病率可能比普遍认为的更高。
