Abstract
A 25-year-old Papuan presented with three painless foot ulcers with undermined edges, induration and oedema. The appearance was typical for Buruli ulcer, which is caused by Mycobacterium ulcerans. A smear was positive for acid fast bacilli. Buruli ulcers are found in patients from humid and tropical regions and are treated with rifampicin and streptomycin during eight weeks.
